Cake
3 tbsp oat flour
1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
Pinch of salt
2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp apple cider
1 tbsp unsweetened applesauce
1 tsp maple syrup
1 tsp melted butter
Cinnamon sugar
1 tsp sugar
Pinch of cinnamon
Apple cider icing
2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
1/2 tsp maple syrup
1/2 tsp apple cider

Method

1
In a wide microwave safe mug, mix the cake ingredients. The batter should fall slowly from the spoon.
2
Microwave for 70 seconds, then cook in 10 second bursts until the top looks set with no liquid batter. Rest for 1 minute.
3
Scatter the cinnamon sugar over the warm cake.
4
Mix the yogurt, maple syrup, and cider until pourable, then drizzle over the top so some cinnamon sugar still shows.

Questions People Ask

Can I use another protein powder?
Yes. Protein powders absorb liquid differently. Add milk one teaspoon at a time if the batter is stiff and stop cooking as soon as no liquid batter remains.
How do I know when it is done?
Use the visual cue in the directions. Mug width and microwave power change the time, so cook in short bursts after the first check.

Storage

Best eaten fresh. If needed, cover and refrigerate the cake for up to 1 day. Warm briefly and add the icing after reheating.
