I used almond flour for this recipe but coconut flour would work as well.

Keto Chocolate Mug Cake Ingredients

– Almond flour: Baking with almond flour is easiest when it is blanched. If all you have is coconut flour feel free to use it as a substitute.

– Cocoa powder: Make sure to use unsweetened cocoa powder.

– Chocolate: I use sugar-free chocolate chips and 90% dark chocolate chips. Either one of those is keto-approved.

– Butter: For baking, I use unsalted butter.

– Sugar: Use any keto friendly sweetener of your choice such as monk fruit, erythritol or allulose.

– Baking powder: This is a must-have ingredient. Try not to skip it.

– Egg: When baking I always use large eggs.

– Vanilla: Definitely a must use ingredient for an amazing low carb chocolate mug cake

– Salt: Sea salt gives this mug cake such a good flavor.
