protein mug cake

Ingredients: 
1 Scoop vanilla whey protein powder (I use Body Fortress) 
1 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder 
1 tsp sugar or sugar substitute (I use Truvia baking blend) 
1/4 tsp baking soda 
pinch of salt 
1 egg 
1 Tbsp almond milk 
1 Tbsp peanut butter 

Mix all the dry ingredients in a mug (protein powder, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt) with a fork until well blended and there are no clumps. Add in the egg and almond milk and mix until smooth. Drop the peanut butter into the center of the chocolate mixture and press down to submerge. Microwave for around 1 minute on high (give or take some time depending on your microwave), but watch it! It will start to bubble over the top. If this happens, stop microwaving, press batter back into mug with fork, and continue microwaving. When finished, cake should be cooked but still very moist. It is okay if not all the batter has cooked! 

paleo protein mug cake.

stuff you need (serves one).

one serve of protein powder (we use 180 nutrition because it is completely clean…HALLELUJAH!)
one tbs. raw cacao powder.
one tbs. coconut oil.
one tsp. stevia (we love to use natvia).
one tbs. cinnamon.
half a cup of egg whites (about two-three).
one tbs. water.

now what.

Place all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.
Place the mixture into a mug or small bowl.
Microwave for one minute at a time, stirring between minutes.
Depending on your microwave it may take one, two or three minutes until a nice ‘cake’ forms.
Top your cake with raspberries and coconut or anything you please!

It tastes naughty…but is totally fit + healthy! WE LOVE MUG CAKE!

Dessssserrrrrt! As much as I love savory food, I do have a sweet tooth and this mug cake is totally easy to make, fast, sweet, and perfect for growing those big guns! Throw together in a mug: vanilla protein powder, egg white, vanilla coconut milk, stevia (an alternative sweetener to sugar 0 cal!!), raw almond slivers and microwave for 40 seconds, flip the cake and microwave again for another 20 seconds until cake-like, don’t microwave too long otherwise it will turn spongy and taste super dry. Top with whatever extra treats you like, I use cinnamon, flax seed, frozen berries, nonfat plain Greek yogurt, and almond butter.

Ingredients:
