Notes
This recipe leads to a small mug serving. For a bigger mug cake, feel free to double the quantities and so to double the baking time.
To make oat flour, simply blend rolled oats on high speed until reduce in a fine flour. Make sure you are using certified gluten free oats for a GF version.
Make sure you are using a microwave-proof mug to make this recipe. The mug should be big enough to be three-quarters full with the raw dough as it will significantly rise during the baking.
