RECIPE INGREDIENTS

» For Blueberry Mug Cake

• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, or wheat flour
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• A pinch of salt
• 3 tablespoons milk of your choice
• 2 tablespoons neutral oil, or melted butter
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 12-15 fresh or frozen blueberries
• 1 teaspoon pearl sugar, optional

RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS

» How To Make Blueberry Mug Cake

1. Use a microwave-safe mug that can hold at least 12 ounces to avoid overflowing while cooking. In the mug, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir with a fork or small whisk to mix well.
2. To the dry ingredients, add the milk, melted butter (or oil).
3. Mix well until the batter is smooth and there are no lumps.
4. Gently fold the 10-11 blueberries into the batter, distributing them evenly.
5. Lastly add vanilla extract and mix again. Vanilla extract in the end gives this mug cake the best flavor.
6. Top with 3-4 more blueberries.
7. Sprinkle with some pearl sugar. Microwave on high for about 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes. The exact time may vary depending on your microwave's power, so start checking at 1 minute to ensure it doesn't overcook. The cake is done when it has risen and is firm to the touch.
8. Let the mug cake cool for a minute or two. Be careful, as the mug will be hot. You can enjoy it straight from the mug or tip it onto a plate.
9. Serve it with a cup of coffee.

RECIPE NOTES

1. Toppings: For an extra touch, you can add a sprinkle of powdered sugar, a dollop of whipped cream, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of the cake before serving.
2. Variations: Feel free to experiment with adding a little lemon zest to the batter for a lemon blueberry version, or swap the blueberries for other berries if desired.
