Ingredients

  • 1 whole banana, ripe
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 whole egg
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted

Instructions

  1. 1

    Peel banana and slice into a microwave-safe mug. Mash with a fork until mostly smooth.

  2. 2

    Add flour, cocoa powder, sugar, egg, and melted butter. Stir until just combined; batter will be thick.

  3. 3

    Microwave on high for 90 seconds. Check with a toothpick—it should come out with moist crumbs, not wet.

  4. 4

    Let cool 1 minute. Eat from the mug with a spoon, or turn out onto a plate.

Tools you’ll need
