Cottage Cheese Mug Cake

Ingredients

  • 334 g cottage cheese
  • 2 eggs
  • 120 g all purpose flour
  • 3 tbsp monk fruit sweetener
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • lemon zest or cinnamon

Steps

  1. Blend the cottage cheese until mostly smooth.
  2. Mix in the eggs.
  3. Add the flour, sweetener, and baking powder.
  4. Stir until just combined.
  5. The batter should be thick, like muffin batter. If it still seems runny, add another 1 to 2 tbsp flour.
  6. Do not put all of this in one mug.
  7. Divide into 4 microwave-safe cups or mugs, filling each no more than halfway.
  8. For your Siemens microwave: 600 W: 2 to 2½ minutes per mug 900 W: 1½ to 2 minutes per mug
  9. Let each mug rest for 2 minutes before checking. The center should look set and spring back lightly when touched.
  10. For a fluffier result Add: 1 extra egg, or ½ tsp baking soda plus 1 tsp lemon juice
  11. This recipe will give you something closer to a moist muffin cake rather than a cheesecake texture. If you tell me your Siemens model or which power settings you have available (90, 180, 360, 600, 900 W, etc.), I can give more precise cooking times.
