Bestanddele en vervangings
You only need 6 simple ingredients to make this recipe. Here’s how to pick and swap them.

- Poeiergrondboontjiebotter – This provides the primary peanut butter flavor for your mug cake, offering a concentrated taste without excess fat. You can use chocolate powdered peanut butter to create a chocolate-flavored mug cake.
- Vanielje Proteïenpoeier – This is a key ingredient for boosting the protein content of your mug cake. You can use any flavor or type of protein powder you prefer; I typically bake with pea protein powder. Just be aware that different protein powders absorb liquid differently, so you might need to adjust the amount of soy milk.
- Bakpoeier – This leavening agent helps your mug cake rise, giving it a light and fluffy texture in the microwave.
- Havermeel – This forms the main structure of your mug cake. If you opt for almond flour instead, you’ll need to reduce the soy milk to 3 tablespoons, as almond flour is less liquid-absorbent.
- Soja melk – This liquid binds all the dry ingredients together. Any plant-based milk can be used, but soy milk will contribute the most protein to your snack.
- Esdoringstroop – This adds sweetness to your mug cake. For a lower-calorie option, you can use sugar-free maple syrup.
- Sjokoladeskyfies – These are an optional addition that melt into delicious pockets, adding extra sweetness and a lovely texture to your mug cake. You can skip them if you prefer, or serve your mug cake with a dollop of dairy-free yogurt to increase the protein content even further.

Let me share a few more tips for a perfect mug cake.
- Microwave Power Matters – Start microwaving at 1000W for the minimum time of 70 seconds. If your mug cake still looks wet in the center after this, microwave in additional 10-second bursts until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If your microwave has lower power, you’ll naturally need to microwave it for a longer duration.
- Adjust Liquid for Protein Powder – Recipes with protein powder can be less precise because different types of protein powder (pea, hemp, whey, etc.) absorb liquid differently. Always feel free to adjust the amount of soy milk: add a tiny bit more if the batter is too dry or crumbly, or a little more protein powder or oat flour if it’s too runny.
- Boost Sweetness or Protein – You can add a few chocolate chips on top of your mug cake for an extra touch of sweetness. Alternatively, if you want to boost the protein even more without added sugar, skip the chocolate chips and serve your mug cake with a serving of your favorite protein-rich plant-based yogurt, like soy yogurt.
- Vrugtige Twist – For a natural sweetness boost without extra sugar, stir in 2 tablespoons of fresh berries like raspberries or blueberries into the mug cake batter before microwaving.
- Oven/Air Fryer Option – If you don’t have a microwave, you can bake this mug cake in an oven-safe ramekin in an air fryer at 350°F (180°C) for 6-8 minutes. You can also bake it in a preheated conventional oven at the same temperature, though it will likely take longer, around 10-12 minutes. Always ensure a toothpick comes out clean.
- Sjokolade Variasie – To make a chocolate protein mug cake, use chocolate protein powder or chocolate-flavored powdered peanut butter.
