Blueberry Muffin in a Mug ~ no sugar, low carb

Blueberry Muffin Mix (no sugar, low carb), serves one

Heidi here. This is an amazing recipe that I modified from Simply Keto: A Practical Approach to Health & Weight Loss, with 100+ Easy Low-Carb Recipes.

Dry ingredients:
3 Tbl blanched almond flour
1 Tbl cocnut flour
1 Tbl plus 1 tsp Swerve confectioners'-style sweetener
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt

Because this serves one and is a lot of work, I actually batch up the dry ingredients into baggies by putting out a bunch of bowls and measuring the ingredients into the bowls. Then, I whisk the ingredients to mix well and pour them into snack sized baggies. So, in the morning when I'm ready to make breakfast, it doesn't take too long.

Put all dry ingredients in a medium microwave-safe mug.

Add wet ingredients to mug:
1 large egg
1 Tbl unsalted butter, melted
1 tsp avocado oil
1/4 tsp vanilla extract

mix well.

Gently stir in 10-14 blueberries, depending on size. Use the back of a spoon to press the batter down and smooth the top.

To the right is the blueberry muffin ingredients all mixed together and ready to go into the microwave.

Place the batter-filled mug in the microwave for 1 minute 30 seconds, you may need to add an additional 15 seconds.

Run a butter knife around the cooked muffin to release it. Flip mug upside down over a plate and allow muffin to slide onto the plate.

To the left is the muffin, fresh out of the microwave, cut in fourths. I drizzle additional melted butter (about 1 tsp) over the meal. So yummy!

BTW, I got the unusual ingredients at Whole Foods. If you aren't close to a Whole Foods, try Jet.com.
