This single serve muffin is a perfectly quick and easy breakfast made in 2 minutes in a mug to go! It’s low carb, dairy free, gluten free and sugar free!

This recipe is an adaption of some of my other single serve muffins, Mint Chocolate Flax Muffin, Peanut Butter Flax Muffin and my Pumpkin Flax Muffin. Each are one single serving and easy to make in under 5 minutes!

I removed it from the mug so you could see it better but obviously it is easier to just eat with a spoon right in the mug itself.

Anyone who is busy with work or family knows moms usually never eat breakfast or eat scrapes off their kids plates. I avoid this at all costs and work hard to ensure I eat a healthy breakfast to start my day. Making a quick breakfast is easy, choosing to make it a healthy one can be a challenge, but these mug muffins I’ve got going are the perfect solution!

If you’ve never tried a mug muffin you are in for a treat! Once you make them you will never complain about not having enough time for breakfast again. 🙂

Brenda’s Notes:

  • You can stir the ingredients right in the mug you are using to cook it with but I found it easier to combine in a shallow bowl then pour in the mug.
  • You can use powdered stevia in the batter if you don’t have liquid, I would suggest 1-2 packets or 1/4 teaspoon pure stevia extract.
  • You can also make this in the oven at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes until you see it rise and cooked in the center.
  • The nutrition info is with the icing on top, but if you were to eliminate it the nutrition info would be: Calories: 166, Fat: 9g, Cholesterol: 180mg, Sodium: 187mg, Carbs: 11.2g, Fiber: 7.7g, Sugars: .2g, Protein: 9.7g and Weight Watchers PointsPlus: 4*

    1. I had the same question, since I was out of flax seed. I ended up just using another tablespoon of coconut flour and it came out great!

  3. I have made/eaten several of these and love them! I decided to make it quicker on a work morning to pre-mix the dry ingredients then just add the wet .

    2. I broke down & bought the coconut flour last night and made this for breakfast this morning. I didn’t realize how many more calories, etc oat flour would have been until I looked it up! I don’t have coconut butter, either so I sprinkled a little coconut sugar on top. SO good!! Thanks & keep up the good work!

  12. I have 2 thoughts/questions:

    I get headaches from Stevia, any other suggestions to substitute? I usually use raw coconut nectar

    What do you use for a topping?

    1. That’s coconut butter mixed with water to thin it out then you can add any sweetener you like to it.

  14. This is such a cute idea and a great way to portion control, considering if I make a batch of muffins, I tend to eat more than I should lol!

  19. What a fun and quick treat and love that it’s sugar-free…now to make one for me later to enjoy with a hot cup of tea;)

    1. Oh it was so good with my coffee the other day and of course you will love it with some hot tea as well!

  20. 5 stars
    I love every single one of these ingredients!
    I’ll have to try the baked version as we don’t have a microwave but I don’t mind the extra waiting time. I make jar cakes all the time but I’m new to mug cakes! Exited to try this – I’ll make one for my husband tomorrow morning, I bet he’ll love it!!
