🥄 The Easiest High-Protein Mug Cake (Single-Serve and Fluffy!)
Share
If you’re looking for the quickest way to boost your morning protein, this single-serve mug cake has you covered.
It’s light, fluffy, and packed with 27g of protein — all ready in under five minutes with simple ingredients you already have.
While we love the classic pancake batter for mug cakes, this slightly tweaked version delivers the best soft, fluffy texture when you’re making just one serving.
📝 Ingredients:
1/2 cup HelloAmino Pancake/Waffle Mix
1 whole egg yolk
3 tablespoons water (NOT milk)
Quick spray of coconut oil

Lightly grease a large microwave-safe mug and pour the batter into the mug and microwave for 90 seconds.

🌟 Bonus Protein Tip:
Top with a dollop of 0% Greek yogurt mixed with 1 tablespoon of HelloAmino Protein Icing Mix for an extra 7g of protein and a sweet creamy finish and garnish with berries.
