This super delicious keto, almond flour peanut butter mug cake with chocolate chips is the perfect treat for peanut butter lovers.
It is super soft, fluffy, quick and takes only 90 seconds in the microwave.
Keto Peanut Butter Mug Cake
I love making mug cakes because they satisfy my sweet cravings without spending too much time, and this peanut butter mug cake is so good!
I highly recommend using natural peanut butter with no added oil or sugar.
Is Peanut Butter Keto-Friendly?
Yes, natural peanut butter with only one ingredient ( peanuts) with no sugar or oil added is keto-friendly. One tablespoon of natural contains about 2.5 grams of net carbs.
Ingredients
Almond flour: I used only ¼ cup almond flour.
Peanut butter: I used natural, crunchy peanut butter.
Baking powder: It helps in making the mug cake fluffy and soft.
Butter: I used unsalted butter; you may substitute it with coconut oil.
Egg: I used just one large egg.
Powdered erythritol: To sweeten my cake a little bite.
Toppings: I topped my cake with some shredded coconut and unsweetened dark chocolate chips.
How To Make Keto Peanut Butter Mug Cake
One: Crack the egg on the mug, then whisk it using a fork or whisker. Add the peanut butter and the melted butter then whisk.
Two: After that, add the almond flour, powdered erythritol and baking powder and keep whisking.
Three: Then, add the chocolate chips and shredded coconut, stir. After that, microwave the mug cake for 90 seconds. Then, serve.
My advice for you is to use a big mug for making this cake because this cake tends to rise quite high while cooking.
Topping Ideas For This Keto Mug Cake
I topped it with some shredded coconut and some chocolate chips. You may top it with anything you like.
Here are some suggestions: top it with whipped cream, or you can sprinkle some powdered erythritol on the top or even some peanut butter sauce for a stronger peanut flavour.
