Directions

Directions
1

In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream with a whisk until stiff peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes.

2

Gently fold in the erythritol. Set aside in the refrigerator until needed.

3

Sift the protein powder, MCT oil powder, baking soda, and salt into a mixing bowl.

4

In a blender, pulse the almond milk, vanilla extract, egg, and cocoa powder until smooth. While whisking, pour the almond milk mixture into the dry ingredients and continue to whisk until smooth.

5

Gently fold this mixture into the sweetened whipped cream.

6

Pour the batter into a 16-ounce or larger mug, leaving at least 2 inches of space at the top. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 1 minute.

7

Remove from the microwave and carefully lift off the plastic wrap (it will be hot, so be careful not to get a steam burn).

8

Place the mug back in the microwave, uncovered, and microwave on high for 30 to 45 seconds, until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean.

9

Top your keto mug cake with chopped nuts (if desired) and serve hot.
