Hot Cocoa Mug Cake

In a small bowl, whisk together the oat flour, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.

Add the hot water, applesauce, and vanilla extract. Stir until the batter is smooth, thick, and glossy.

Transfer the batter to a microwave-safe mug and sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the top.

Microwave for 50 to 60 seconds, until the center is set but still soft. If needed, heat an additional 10 to 15 seconds.

Let cool for 3 minutes before eating. Serve as is or top with Greek yogurt, whipped cream, or a light dusting of cocoa powder.
