oats and coffee Mug cake

How many times throughout the day have we craved for a simple, easy, tasty and yet a healthy snack? Well, the baker in me gave it a thought and came out with this oats mug cake. It requires just 40 seconds at a temperature of 800-degree celsius and preparation would not take more than 2 minutes. So basically here you go with a healthy and tasty recipe in less than 3 minutes. It’s perfect for an anytime snack or even as your version of breakfast oats. This was my perfect solution to everyday breakfast during the morning rush. Although, I would just try to cut down on my calorie intake by reducing the amount of sugar and butter but 1 teaspoon of butter is not going to harm anyone. I used to have it with seasonal fruits like a guava or an apple, making my breakfast a perfect one to start my day. Try it out tomorrow morning and you’ll love it for sure.

Ingredient:                                                                                                                                  
Oats (preferably powdered) – 2 teaspoon
Baking powder- ¼ teaspoon
Sugar (preferably powdered) - 1 ½  teaspoon
Melted Butter (I have used nutralite) – 1 teaspoon
Milk – 7-8 teaspoon
Coffee powder (optional)– ½ teaspoon
Egg- 1
Vanilla essence – 2-3 drops.

Method:
  1. Dissolve ½ tsp of coffee powder in 7-8 tsp of milk. Keep aside.
  2. Mix sugar and butter together. Add whole egg to it. Whisk the mixture till it forms a dripping consistency. Add vanilla essence and dissolved coffee into it.
  3. In a separate cup, mix oats and baking powder together. Slowly pour the wet ingredients mixture to this cup, stirring simultaneously so that no lumps are formed.
  4. Bake it at 800-degree celsius for 30 seconds or until the cake just rises up. Your oats cake is ready to enjoy!!    
note- you can replace oats with refined flour for a regular cake and coffee powder with cocoa powder for chocolate cake.
