Microwave KANZI® Apple Cinnamon Bun Mug Cake

INGREDIENTS

  • ½ medium KANZI® apple, thinly sliced into half-moons approximately 5 mm thick

  • 3 tbsp (42 g) salted butter (divided, see instructions)

  • 3 tbsp brown sugar (divided)

  • Ground cinnamon

  • Ground nutmeg

  • ¼ cup milk*

  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

  • ⅓ cup (40 g) plain flour

INSTRUCTIONS

Serves 1

  1. To the bottom of a microwave-safe mug, add half of the apple slices, ½ tbsp (7 g) butter, ½ tbsp brown sugar, and a pinch each of cinnamon and nutmeg. Microwave for 30 seconds to soften the apples and create a brown sugar sauce.
  2. In a separate small microwave-safe bowl, microwave 2 tbsp (28 g) butter in 30s intervals, until melted. Stir in 2 tbsp brown sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until combined. Add the flour, baking powder, and another pinch each of cinnamon and nutmeg. Mix until just smooth and combined, being careful not to overmix. Pour the batter over the apples.
  3. Top the batter with the remaining apple slices, then sprinkle with remaining ½ tbsp brown sugar and a final pinch each of cinnamon and nutmeg. Dot with remaining ½ tbsp (7 g) butter.
  4. Microwave for 1 min 30 sec on high. (Please note that all microwaves are different therefore can yield different results. Be careful not to overcook!)
  5. Top with an optional scoop of vanilla ice cream and serve immediately.
