Matcha Mug Cake (Single-Serve, Microwave in 2 minuten)

Need dessert fast? This matcha mug cake takes about five minuten start to finish, no oven required.

It is ideal when you want one portion and do not want a full batch of brownies or loaf cake.

ingrediënten

Ingredient tip: Using high-quality matcha poeder helps keep flavour smooth and balanced in this recept. (1 mug cake)

  • 4 tbsp plain flour
  • 1 tbsp sugar (or maple syrup equivalent)
  • 1 tsp matcha poeder (about 2g), sifted
  • 1/4 tsp baking poeder
  • 3 tbsp melk (dairy or oat)
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil or melted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
  • pinch of salt

Method

  1. Mix dry ingrediënten in a large microwave-safe mug.
  2. Stir in wet ingrediënten until smooth.
  3. Microwave for 70–90 seconds (timing depends on wattage).
  4. Rest for 1 minute and serve warm.

makkelijk variations

White chocolate matcha mug cake

Add 1 tbsp white chocolate chips before microwaving.

Protein-style version

Swap 1 tbsp flour for vanilla protein poeder and add 1 extra tbsp melk.

Dairy-free version

Use oat melk and neutral oil; top with coconut yogurt.

Troubleshooting

  • Too dry: reduce cook time by 5–10 seconds or add 1 tbsp melk.
  • Too dense: make sure baking poeder is fresh.
  • Bitter taste: reduce matcha to 3/4 tsp or increase sweetener slightly.

For bigger-batch dessert ideas, try matcha cookies or matcha banana bread.
