Lemon & Blueberry Mug Cake

Todays I’m sharing a great Lemon & Blueberry Mug Cake recipe.

I came across this recipe from Keto Pots and thought it looked tasty. This is a delicious, healthy, gluten free dessert that takes just a few minutes to make.

We have a large bag of dried blueberries in the pantry that are taking me a while to use. So, I decided to soak some of the dried blueberries in water and use them in this recipe. We also have a good crop of lemons on our tree at the moment.

I actually doubled this recipe and mixed it in a larger bowl, before splitting it into the 2 ramekins. This is a super fast, super easy recipe to make.

Lemon & Blueberry Mug Cake
Ingredients (makes 1)

1 egg

5 tbsp almond flour

½ tsp baking powder

1 ½ tbsp Natvia Gold brown sugar (or other sweetener)

2 tbsp lemon juice

1 tsp lemon zest

2 tbsp blueberries

Method

* In a small bowl combine the almond flour and baking flour

* In a large, microwave safe mug – whisk together the lemon juice, lemon zest, egg and sweetener.

* Add the almond flour mixture and stir well

* Fold in the blueberries.

* Microwave on high for 90 seconds or till the top is firm to the touch and a toothpick comes out clean.

* Best eaten warm (also great with a bit of yoghurt or cream)

 

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do.

Spiced Pumpkin Muffin recipe

Today I’m going to share a muffin recipe.

This morning I was looking through my recipe collection and writing the week’s menu list when I came across this Spiced Pumpkin Muffin recipe.

Every so often, when I am researching something on line, I come across some interesting recipes. There are many gluten free recipes on the Internet and we have found many are lacking in taste or texture.

I had printed this one out ages ago and forgotten about it. The recipe is easy and I had all the ingredients, so I made a batch.

This recipe made 12 small muffins. They are very light in texture, quite yummy and are gluten free. I think you could make a few variations by swapping out the pumpkin for cooked apple or maybe even mashed banana.

 Spiced Pumpkin Muffins

(makes 12 small muffins)

Ingredients

5 eggs

4 tbsp. melted butter or coconut oil

½ cup mashed butternut pumpkin

½ cup Maple syrup or honey

½ cup dextrose or coconut sugar

1 tsp. ground cinnamon

½ tsp. ground allspice

Pinch sea salt

1 tsp. vanilla extract or paste

½ cup sifted coconut flour

½ tsp. baking powder

 

Method

Preheat your oven to 200’ C and lightly grease a muffin tin.

– Mix the eggs, butter (or oil), pumpkin, maple syrup, dextrose, cinnamon, allspice, salt and vanilla together in a large mixing bowl. I used a stick blender.

– In a separate bowl, mix the baking powder and coconut flour together then add to the batter. Mix well ensuring there are no lumps and the batter is smooth.

– Ladle the batter into the muffin cups.

– Bake for approximately 18 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

 

We ate a couple while they were still a bit warm with a little bit of butter, delicious.

I will definitely be making these again. I hope you enjoy them also.
