Hi Bold Bakers!
Why not change up your breakfast routine in the morning with a Microwave Breakfast Cookie in a Mug. This is more than just a cookie, it’s the ultimate mug recipe that is packed full of all-natural and power packed ingredients to kick start your day.
Peanut Butter is full of protein that is the good energy you need to get moving in the morning. Oats are slow releasing which gives you that full feeling and keeps you satisfied until lunch time. The banana balances out the breakfast cookie and gives that lovely natural sweetness that we love from bananas.
Microwave Mug Meals are for anyone who wants to eat real food fast. My mug meals are for anyone who has limited kitchen space or time or if you just need a single serving recipe that is still a real meal.
Nutritional Value along with Weight Watchers Points can be found in the written recipe below.

Recipe Notes
Cooking time will vary greatly depending on your microwave and the width and depth of the mug. The mugs I use are small, roughly 6oz (¾ /1 cup)
Always keep a close eye on your mug while in the microwave so it doesn’t over flow or over cook.
You can add in seed or nuts also WW SmartPoints: 17

I love this recipe so much. I wanted to make it today but found i had no bananas. Is there a possible substitue for this?
Much love 🙂
Looks delicious. I’m not a fan of raisins though so I may add dried cherries!
Useful information. Fortunate me I found your website unintentionally,
and I’m shocked why this coincidence didn’t came about earlier!
I bookmarked it.
I used 3 tbsp of applesauce in place of the banana and for some reason it turned out less like a cookie and more like thick applesauce mixture with oats in it. Do you know why this happened?
Hi Gemma! I made this and it might be my favorite mug breakfast of all time. It took mine around 3 minutes to cook. Do you have any idea how many watts my microwave is? My microwave is different from other microwaves. It would help if you could give me an estimate because I always have to guess how long to cook mine.

If I wanted to bake this meal, what is the oven temperature to use?
Instead of using rolled oats, can i use granola instead?
P.S. I love your videos and recipes
