Coconut flour low carb/keto vanilla berry mug cake(s)

I'm sure you will like these quick and easy one minute coconut flour low carb/keto vanilla berry mug cake(s). They are low carb/keto, sugar free, made with coconut flour, and work out at 5g net carbs.

Coconut flour is a wonderful low-carb, keto, gluten-free flour. It is light, packed with fibre, easy to use, requires very little quantities and so ends up being a very affordable baking grain-free flour. if you would like to know more about cooking with low carb (alternative) flours please see here


Ingredients
Serves One
1 tbsp. butter melted
2 tbsp. cream cheese full fat
2 tbsp. coconut flour
1 tbsp. granulated sweetener of choice or more to taste
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 egg medium
6 frozen raspberries
Note
For those readers who don’t own a microwave or don’t like using them. You can still make the low carb/keto vanilla berry cake batter, but you will have to cook it in the oven. Of course, it is no longer a 1-minute mug cake, and it becomes a 12-minute cupcake instead. But it can be done. Simply bake at 180C/350F in a cupcake case or muffin tray.
Instructions
Can be found here

I don't have cream cheese. Would Greek Yogurt work as a substitute?

Hello Sandi
Many thanks for your comment and question.
I've not tried using Greek Yogurt in this recipe.
However, there are recipes on the internet that do, so why not give it a try ...
If you do please come back and let us know the outcome.

All the best Jan

Wow looks delicious!

Elderberry-Rob said...

unusual recipe :) certainly looks pretty and I love raspberries... nobody else would eat it here as they either don't like cream cheese or dont like food cooked in the microwave - fussy people here!

I've only tried making a mug cake once before and it just didn't work out, I'm sure I must have done something wrong. This looks delicious and easy.

That looks delicious. I made a chocolate-coconut flour loaf cake the other day. I am surprised how much you can taste the coconut. Yum. And high fiber too! Have a great start to your weekend.

SO DELICIOUS!

I substituted plain whole milk Greek yogurt for the cream cheese, blueberries for raspberries, and left out the granulated sweetener of your choice because the berries are so sweet.

It was fabulous! But I think the added sweetener would have made it even better. Next time I won't leave it out.

DVArtist said...

Every time I have tried Coconut flour it seems way too sweet. This does sound good though.

Hello Sandi

I like that you said SO DELICIOUS!

Many thanks for coming back with an update.
I am so pleased you tried this recipe and tweaked it to suit the ingredients you had.

The mug cakes are so quick and easy to do and using coconut flour so low carb too!

Enjoy the remainder of Friday and have a great weekend.

Feliz fin de semana para ti.

Back again to say I tried it with peanut butter replacing the butter, cream cheese, granulated sweetener, and vanilla. Yum. So good. The peanut butter is deliciously gooey. Could also work with no sugar almond butter or something similar.
