Ingredients

1/2 ripe banana mashed (about 60 g)
2 tbsp almond flour (14 g)
1 tbsp flax seed meal (7 g) you can probably sub regular flour for this
1 tsp (optional) nut/seed butter (5 g) sub oil
2-3 tsp (nut) milk you might need more, the mixture should be like cake/muffin batter
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
pinch of salt
drop of vanilla extract

Instructions

In a medium bowl, mash your banana.
Add all else and stir, adding milk 1 tsp at a time to reach cake/muffin batter consistency (more wet than cookie dough but not soupy).
Pour into a greased mug, let it sit for 5 minutes for the flax to thicken.
Microwave about 1 min until it stops rising.
Top with your fave nut/seed butter and enjoy!

Notes

The nut butter in this recipe is optional, makes the cake just a bit more rich tasting.
