Preparation

Step 1

Use a little extra coconut oil to grease a coffee mug thoroughly. Put the tsp of coconut oil in it and microwave for 10 seconds, to melt.

Add the egg and the stevia to the coconut oil and use a fork to stir them up very well. Measure everything else into a bowl and stir it together, breaking up any clumps of baking powder.

Add the dry mixture to the mug and stir with the fork till it's all blended, no pockets of dry stuff, but don't overmix.

Microwave on high for 1 minute, then check to see if it's done. If it's pulling away from the sides of the mug, it is.

Tip it out onto a plate, split, and eat. Instead of butter, consider putting a little sugar-free berry puree on your muffin, or honey if you can afford the carbs.
