How to make a 1-minute carrot mug cake recipe?

Carrot Mug Cake Recipe | 1-Minute Carrot Cake | with step by step photos and video. For this recipe, I am using a 500 ml soup cup. Based on the cup size reduce the quantity of ingredients. As for toppings I used on this carrot cake mug cake, I made a homemade whipped cream to go on top along with few shredded carrots. Additionally, I had added some raisins and badams too for a rich taste.

This recipe calls for 1/4 tsp of cinnamon powder, which sounds like a lot, but it adds the perfect amount of flavor to this quick cake! Moreover, if you like add just a pinch of nutmeg. Too much will overpower. Do use freshly grated carrots.

Other tips and tricks on making a mug cake:

  • Make sure your mug is microwave-safe! You don’t want to have any accidents with a mug breaking or anything!
  • Feel free to use any kind of milk.
  • Do use freshly grated carrots.

Notes

Make sure your mug is microwave-safe.

Based on the wattage, cook time may vary. The cake should rise in the mug and not be wet looking when done.

This recipe was tested in a 600-watt microwave with a 1 minute cook time. If your microwave is higher wattage, watch for doneness around 1 minute or below 1-minute.
