Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 0.5 cup mashed ripe banana
  • 0.25 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoon milk
  • 1 tablespoon neutral oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.06 teaspoon fine salt pinch
  • 1 tablespoon semi-sweet chocolate chips optional
  • 1 tablespoon chopped walnuts optional

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • In a large microwave-safe mug, mash the banana until mostly smooth.
  • Whisk in sugar, milk, oil, and vanilla until well combined.
  • Add flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until no dry streaks remain. Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts if using.
  • Microwave on High for about 2 minutes, or until the top is set and springs back lightly. If underdone, microwave in 0.15-minute bursts.
  • Let stand 1 minute to cool slightly. Enjoy warm straight from the mug.

Notes

Microwaves vary—start checking at 1.5 minutes. For gluten-free, use a 1:1 baking blend. For dairy-free, use plant-based milk and dairy-free chips. Add a sprinkle of coarse sugar on top for crunch.
