I used ground up rolled oats for this moist cake which gives it lovely texture and the oats are great to slowly release energy throughout the day.

Learn how to make this Microwave Peanut Butter & Banana Mug Cake featuring all natural ingredients and packing the perfect punch to satisfy your cravings.
Servings: 1

Ingredients

  • 1/2 medium banana , mashed
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter (or any other nut butter)
  • 1 egg white
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 ½ tablespoons (30g/1oz) oat flour*
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  • In a large microwavable mug mash the banana with a fork
  • Mix in the peanut butter, egg whites and vanilla
  • Add in the flour, cinnamon, baking powder and salt and gently stir in until combined
  • Microwave for 45 second- 1 minute or until it is firm in the middle (timing is based on my 1200W microwave so your timing might vary)
  • Top with some more sliced banana and enjoy warm

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 mix the muffin up the night before
Oat flour is rolled Oats that have been blended in a food processor to resemble flour
You can use whole wheat or white flour either

Hi Gemma, I’m wondering is there any substitute for white egg? Or can I just leave it out?

Thanks,
Ika

Delicious! I did with a scoop of vanilla protein powder, and just 2 T of oat flour. So filling!

Did work well. Just not my kind of cake. Tasted mostly like Banana 😉 loved the sponge cake, so I will go back to my all time favourite 😀

I tried this out, and it was good except that it was not sweet at all! I thought I left sugar out, but it was right; there was no sugar. I even used a VERY ripe banana, but to finish the job, I sprinkled on chocolate chips. It made it sweeter and added a chocolate kick.

Hi Gemma. Love this mug cake and I often make it for breakfast to kickstart my day. I add a little drizzle of honey on top while it’s warm, too. Just wondering why you use only the egg white though and not the whole egg. What’s the reason, please?

Ohhh my. My children loved it. I made two, bc I wanted to use the whole banana up. 😜 I added about a tsp of honey and some walnuts. Went so fast that I forgot to take a photo. Lol
