Ingredients
  

1 ripe banana, mashed

1 tablespoon peanut butter (or your preferred nut butter)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

1 egg

3 tablespoons milk (dairy or non-dairy)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup all-purpose flour (or almond flour for a gluten-free option)

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

2 tablespoons chocolate chips (plus extra for topping)

A pinch of salt

Instructions
 

In a microwave-safe mug, mash the ripe banana until smooth using a fork.

    Add the peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), and egg to the mug, mixing well until combined.

      Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until everything is fully incorporated.

        In a separate bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt together. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients in the mug, stirring gently until just combined.

          Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter.

            Sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top for a delicious finish.

              Microwave the mug cake on high for 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on your microwave's wattage. The cake should rise and set in the center—do not overcook.

                Let the mug cake cool for a minute before digging in. Enjoy it warm, directly from the mug!
