Ingredients

• 4 tbsp. almond milk
• 1 scoop Brown Rice Protein
• 2 tbsp. coconut sugar
• ¼ tsp. baking powder
• Handful of blueberries

• Lemon zest
• Maple syrup or Sugar-Free Syrup

Method

1. Add the milk, protein powder, coconut sugar, and baking powder to a microwave-safe mug and stir well with a fork until you get a smooth mixture.
2. Once fully combined, sprinkle a handful of blueberries on top of the mixture and place into the microwave.
3. Microwave for 90 seconds at 800 watts. Timing may vary according to your microwave, so we recommend keeping an eye on the mug cake throughout — it should rise, but if it starts to bubble over the rim of the mug then stop the microwave and let it stand for a few seconds.
4. Remove from the microwave and let cool for at least 3-4 minutes before eating. Garnish with some lemon zest, and, if you’re feeling indulgent, why not try a drizzle of syrup too?
