Instructions

1. Blend the cottage cheese, egg, and sweetener until completely smooth.

2. Stir in the almond flour or oat flour, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and salt until a smooth batter forms.

3. Mix the 1 teaspoon sugar and ¼ teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl.

4. Pour the batter into a large microwave-safe mug. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the batter and gently swirl it with a toothpick.

5. Microwave on high for 90 seconds. If needed, microwave for an additional 15 seconds.

6. Let the mug cake rest for 2 minutes before serving.

Notes

Blend the cottage cheese thoroughly for the smoothest texture.

Use almond flour for a lower-carb option or oat flour for a heartier texture.

Avoid overcooking to keep the cake soft and moist.

Let the mug cake cool for 2 minutes before enjoying.

Customize the sweetness by choosing sugar, maple syrup, or your favorite sugar-free sweetener.
