Chocolate Muffin in a Mug

This is one of my favorite breakfast recipes!  It only takes a couple of minutes to throw together and it's super yummy, filling and healthy!

Enjoy!

CHOCOLATE MUFFIN IN A MUG

1 egg
Dash of vanilla
1 1/2 tablespoons golden flax meal
1 1/2 tablespoons almond flour
1 heaping tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
2-4 teaspoons Truvia
1/2 teaspoon aluminum free baking powder
1 tablespoon coconut oil (it's okay if it's in solid form, you don't need to melt it)

1)  Crack the egg into a coffee mug and whisk it well with a fork.

2)  Add the remaining ingredients and stir vigorously until well mixed.

3)  Microwave for 1 minute.

4)  Turn onto a plate and cut in half (so it doesn't roll around).

5)  Top with non-fat Greek yogurt and berries or just eat it plain!

NOTES:

~I make-up little snack baggies with the dry ingredients ahead of time, so when I want a muffin, I just put the egg, vanilla and coconut oil in the mug, add the baggie mixture, stir and microwave!  Easy peasy!

~I also like to throw in some unsweetened coconut for a little variety.

~My favorite way to eat this is to add a little Truvia to my non-fat Greek yogurt, put that on top of the muffin and then top with strawberries and blueberries.  You'll think you're having dessert, but without all of the calories!

~Make sure you rinse your mug right away or you'll have a tough time getting it clean!
