Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoons dark chocolate chips optional
  • 1 tablespoon golden raisins
  • ¼ cup Chantal's all-purpose gluten free flour blend
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon coconut flour
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ to 1 tablespoon instant coffee
  • 5 tablespoons boiling water or you can use 5 tablespoons percolated coffee in place of the instant coffee and water
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or melted coconut oil

Equipment

  • Measuring cups
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Large microwave safe mug
  • Small spoon for mixing
  • Small microwave safe plate
  • Small bowl or coffee cup

Method
 

  1. Mix in the desired amount of instant coffee into the boiling water.
  2. Add in all the dry ingredients into a large microwave safe mug, except for the chocolate chips, and raisins. Mix to combine.
  3. Add in the hot coffee, vanilla, and vegetable oil. Mix well to remove any clumps.
  4. Add in the chocolate chips and raisins into the mix, and give everything a quick mix. You can sprinkle a bit more chocolate chips on top if you prefer.
  5. Place the mug onto a microwave safe plate, and place it into the microwave. The plate is there to catch any spilling that might occur.
  6. Microwave on high for 1 minute and 30 seconds to 1 minute and 45 seconds.
  7. Serve warm or cold

Notes

Check your microwave wattage before you proceed with the microwaving process. Every microwave is different. Microwaves with higher wattages tend to cook the food a lot faster than those with lower wattages. Our microwave is 1100 W output which is the energy used to cook the food. At that energy level, I cook the mug cake for 1 minute and 30 seconds.
