Quick 3-Minute Apple Cake

Instructions

1. Prepare the Batter:

  1. In a microwave-safe mug or small bowl, add the flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir to combine.
  2. Add the milk, oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix well until smooth.
  3. Fold in the finely chopped apple, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.

2. Microwave:

  • Place the mug or bowl in the microwave and cook on high for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes (depending on your microwave’s power).
  • Check at the 1 1/2-minute mark—if the top is set and a toothpick comes out clean, it’s ready. If not, microwave in additional 15-second intervals.

3. Serve:

  • Let the cake cool slightly before topping with powdered sugar, whipped cream, or a drizzle of caramel sauce. Enjoy warm!

Tips:

  • Texture Boost: Add a tablespoon of chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts) for crunch.
  • Sweetness: Adjust the sugar based on your preference or the sweetness of the apple.
  • Spice Twist: Add a pinch of nutmeg for extra warmth.
