Helpful Tips

• For an extra moist cake, substitute the milk with almond milk or coconut milk.
• For a twist in flavor, add a few drops of almond or coconut extract along with the vanilla.
• If you don’t have frosting, a scoop of ice cream or Greek yogurt also makes a delightful topping.

Storage Instructions

This Funfetti Mug Cake is best enjoyed fresh but can be covered and kept at room temperature for up to 1 day. Reheat it briefly in the microwave if desired.

Ingredient Substitutions

• Use gluten-free flour blend in place of all-purpose flour for a gluten-free option.
• Swap the vegetable oil for melted coconut oil or butter.
