Cuisine: Low Carb
Serves: 1 mug bread
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons almond flour
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
- Start by gathering all your ingredients: 4 tablespoons of almond flour, 1 tablespoon of coconut flour, 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 1 egg, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and 1 tablespoon of water.
- In a microwave-safe mug, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix these dry ingredients together thoroughly using a fork or small whisk to ensure there are no clumps.
- Next, crack the egg into the mug with the dry ingredients. Add the olive oil and water to the mug as well.
- Using the fork or whisk, mix all the ingredients together until you have a smooth batter. Make sure to scrape the bottom and sides of the mug to incorporate all the flour and ensure an even consistency.
- Once the batter is well combined, place the mug in the microwave. Cook on high for about 1 minute. Keep an eye on it as microwaves can vary in power; you want the bread to rise and set but not overflow.
- After 1 minute, carefully remove the mug from the microwave (it will be hot!). Check if the bread is cooked through by inserting a toothpick or fork into the center. If it comes out clean, your bread is ready. If not, microwave for an additional 10-15 seconds until fully cooked.
- Let the mug bread cool for a minute before enjoying. You can eat it straight from the mug or transfer it to a plate. This low-carb mug bread is perfect for sandwiches or as a side with your favorite dish.
Tips
- Ingredient Substitutions: If you're out of almond flour, you can use other nut flours, but keep in mind that the texture and flavor may vary. Just ensure they are low-carb and gluten-free.
- Microwave Power: Every microwave is different! Start with 1 minute and add additional time in 10-15 second increments if necessary. Keep an eye on the bread to prevent overflow.
- Add Flavor: Feel free to customize your mug bread by adding herbs, spices, or even shredded cheese (if you're not strictly dairy-free) to the batter for extra flavor.
- Storage: If you have leftovers (which is rare!), store your mug bread in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. Reheat in the microwave for a quick snack!
- Serving Suggestions: Enjoy your mug bread plain, or top it with avocado, nut butter, or your favorite spread for a delicious treat any time of the day.
