Amazing Vegan Mug Cake Recipes | ZardyPlants


Hey Reader,

We LOVE mug cakes around here. You can make it in just a few minutes and it's single serving so if you're trying not to over-indulge, it's the perfect dessert to make for yourself or a loved one. We've got flavors like brownie, matcha, cinnamon, strawberry, and more! Oh, and if you don't have a microwave, no worries! Use an oven safe mug or ramekin and you can easily make these in the oven as well (it's just faster in the microwave).
