Instructions
Microwave (7 minutes total time)
- Combine dry ingredients in a small bowl. Add eggs, melted coconut oil or butter, and chocolate. Mix until smooth.
- Equally divide batter into four, well-greased coffee mugs or microwave-safe ramekins.
- Microwave on high for 1-1 ยฝ minutes (700 watts). Remove and let the mug cakes cool for one minute.
Oven (20 minutes total time)
If you donโt want to use your microwave, you can bake the muffins in the oven. In fact, if you have the time, we recommend that you do. Microwaves vary in capacity and the results depend upon the size of your mug, etc.- Preheat your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC).
- Combine dry ingredients in a small bowl. Add eggs, melted coconut oil or butter, and chocolate. Mix until smooth.
- Place liners in a muffin pan, and fill them halfway.
- Bake for about 12-14 minutes or until springy when touched gently in the middle.
Tip!
Keep in mind that the mug cakes will initially swell to double their size when baking in the microwave, then they will shrink back down. Fill the mug to a maximum of two-thirds. Special occasion? Whip up some keto buttercream and pipe a nice rosette on top. These muffins can also be decorated with berries and whipped cream.

Hi Barb, thank you for sharing your experience and I'm sorry that your first batch came out burnt. I will pass this along to our Recipe team to consider an alternate way to display the total time without causing any confusion.
I subbed the cocoa powder for chocolate collagen powder and added whey protein isolate and it worked well. Looking forward to trying it with the hazelnut flour.
Great! So glad you love it!
Sounds great! Thanks for sharing!
