A low-carb mug cake is the best option for those busy days where you have a long to-do list. But also if you don't have enough patience to wait for 30 minutes for a regular cake!
By following this recipe, in 5 minutes you'll enjoy this amazing keto chocolate treat and, here comes the best part:
You will only use one mug. Yep.
All the steps are done in the same mug so you don't have to clean up all those dishes after. We know this makes you happy ☺️ (unless you love doing dishes!)
For this recipe, you'll need 4 squares of one of our keto dark chocolate bars and 5 more ingredients you probably have in your keto pantry: almond flour, one egg, erythritol, unsweetened almond (or coconut) milk, and coconut oil (or ghee, butter). You can also make this keto mug cake with coconut flour but you might need to adjust the quantity.

This mug cake is sugar-free, low-carb, keto, gluten-free - and delicious. An excellent sweet treat if you are in ketosis or starting on a keto diet.
Although we used our dark chocolate coconut bar in this recipe, we recommend trying with other flavours too. The white chocolate or dark chocolate with coffee are also really good options.
Now you have one recipe but plenty of possibilities!
What are the net carbs of this mug cake recipe?
This keto mug cake recipe contains 3g net carbs. But beware that this also depends on the brands and which ingredients you are going to use. To be sure, you can make this calculation at home. It's super simple. If you don't know how to calculate net carbs, check this article where we explain how.
Tip: Our keto dark chocolate coconut bar has only 2.5 net carbs (for this recipe, you'll only need half of the bar which is about 1.2g net carb). If you use pure erythritol as sweetener, remember you don't need to count the carbs from erythritol.
