Equipment

Ingredients

  • 30 g oat flour (1/3 cup)
  • 30 g chocolate whey protein (1/3 cup)
  • 5 g unsweetened cocoa (1 Tbsp)
  • 60 g unsweetened applesauce (1/4 cup)
  • 21 g non fat plain Greek yogurt (sugar free chocolate if you can find it) 1.5 Tbsp
  • 2-3 packets sweetener
  • 1/8 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Combine the dry ingredients in a small bowl or pyrex cup.
  • Add the wet ingredients and mix well with a fork or spoon.
  • Coat the inside of a mug / coffee cup with non stick spray.
  • Spoon the batter into the greased mug (it will be thick).
  • Microwave on high for about 60-70 seconds. It's normal for the cake to rise up while cooking, then settle back down.
  • When it's done, the top and edges will be set like cake, but the bottom in the middle will still be gooey ("molten lava").
  • Let it sit for a minute or two to cool.
  • Enjoy (and try in vain not to get addicted!)
