Pumpkin Mug Cake
This fluffy & moist pumpkin mug cake is a flavorful fall treat that’s quick & easy to whip up. When your sweet tooth calls, this single-serving dessert will surely do the trick!
It’s no secret that I adore desserts. Lately, my social media feed has been flooded with friends posting yummy mug cake recipes, so I decided to try making my first ever mug cake. I will say that I tried a different recipe prior to this and I failed epically! But, I’m happy to report that I was 100% successful with this delicious and simple recipe.
TIPS TO MAKE THE BEST PUMPKIN MUG CAKE:
- Each microwave model differs, so your mug cake may need longer than 90 seconds to cook completely through. If after 90 seconds it’s not completely cooked, microwave in 15-20 second intervals until done.
- If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice on hand, you can add a little cinnamon as I did.
- For a vegan pumpkin mug cake, replace the egg with a plant-based egg replacement.
- This recipe can be made in a mug or ramekin. I used a small 8 oz ramekin & it worked out perfectly!
- If needed, spray mug or ramekin with non-stick spray to avoid your cake sticking to the sides.
