The Magical Orange and Almond Mug Cake in Less Than 10 Minutes!
An Original Recipe by Lorraine Elliott/Not Quite Nigella
Preparation time: 4 minutes
Cooking time: 6 minutes
Makes 1 mug cake
- 1/2 orange, seeds removed
- 1 egg, at room temperature
- 6 tablespoons almond meal/ground almonds
- 2 tablespoons caster or superfine sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Step 1 - Place the half orange (skin and all but remove the stem end) in a bowl and cover with water. Cover with a plate or cling film and microwave on high for 4 minutes. Drain the water and allow to cool for a minute.
Step 2 - Place the orange in a food processor and process until fine and liquid so there are no large chunks of skin. Add the egg and process for a few seconds, then add the almond meal, sugar and baking powder and process for a few seconds until it becomes a batter (less than 10 seconds).
Step 3 - Spoon into a cup filling 3/4 of the way up. Place on a plate (in case of overspill). Microwave for 1 minutes 20 seconds. Serve with a teaspoon of sour cream or yogurt. Any eggy smell will dissipate upon cooling.
