Almondbutter with chocolate? Oh yessss! Lately I’m obsessed with mugcakes. Why haven’t I discovered them before? They are the perfect solution if you crave something sweet with your coffee, but are tired of these classic, crumbly-mouth-drying biscuits which usually go along with it.

A speedy, yummy AND healthy recipe
And making a whole cake isn’t the solution either, as that takes at least 1 hour of your time. Soooo…. a mugcake is perfect! They are usually prepared within 5 minutes, then clean up another 5 minutes and that’s it! The possibilities are endless… I have scribbles in my recipe notebook for banana-peanutbutter mugcake, zucchini-chocolate-mugcake, coconut-chocolate mugcake and I want to try a carrot-cake-mugcake, too. Sounds all well, right? OK, so today I recommend you start with this Chocolate-Almondbutter Mugcake. It is so sweet and creamy inside, absolutely perfect with a cup of coffee! Take a break, 10 minutes and prepare this for you! It’s well worth it! Yumm! The ingredients can be swapped for whatever you have at home. Use peanutbutter instead of almondbutter, or agave syrup instead of maple syrup, use any plantbased milk, I usually use almond milk, but soy, oat, coconut milk goes just as well. Get creative and it will turn out just as perfect, don’t worry. This mugcake can be made gluten free (just pick a gluten free flour), it’s dairy-free and does not need eggs. Hence it’s 100% plantbased and does not contain any nasty ingredients, unlike the industrial mugcake-mixes you can find in the supermarkets. I recommend you stay away from them. So and now, turn your coffee machine on, get some mugs and some spoons and go and prepare this for you! And if you’re fancy an entire cake, I can highly recommend my chocolate-coconut marble cake, which you can find here.Prep Time | 10 minutes |
