Keto Gingerbread Mug Cake

I have a LOT of gingerbread going on in my house right now!

I just hit publish on my Keto Gingerbread Layer Cake (be sure to check that out!) but that particular cake is quite labor intensive.

Needing a quick hit of gingerbread, I created this quick keto gingerbread mug cake.

This cake has all the cozy flavors of winter: ginger, molasses, nutmeg, and cinnamon.

Try this delicious and healthy twist on a classic holiday dessert! Our Keto Gingerbread Mug Cake is made with almond flour and sweetened with monk fruit, so you can enjoy the flavors of the season without the guilt. Bake it in the microwave in under 5 minutes for a warm and cozy treat that's perfect for any time of day.

FAQ's for Keto Gingerbread Mug Cake

Do I need to use a mug?

I find that mugs work really well – because they microwave well and have a handle for removing from the microwave when hot.  However, other small containers such as Pyrex will also work well in the microwave.

Do I need to use all the spices?

Nope! If you don't like any of them, leave them out! But, you may miss out on some of the signature gingerbread flavor.
