Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a microwave-safe mug, whisk together almond flour, sweetener, baking powder, pumpkin spice, and salt.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Stir in pumpkin purée, melted butter, egg or yolk, and vanilla. Mix until smooth and lump-free.
- Microwave: Cook for 60–90 seconds depending on microwave strength. The cake should rise tall (like in your photo!) and look set on top.
- Let It Rest: Allow it to cool for 1–2 minutes — it becomes extra fluffy and moist as it settles.
- Enjoy Warm!: Eat right from the mug or slide it out to enjoy as a mini pumpkin sponge cake.
Notes & Tips
- Use almond flour to keep net carbs low.
- Choose allulose if you want the softest, most moist texture.
- Replace butter with Greek yogurt for added protein and moisture.
- Add chopped pecans or sugar-free chocolate chips for extra flavor.
