Ingredients
  

  • 3 tbsp almond flour
  • 1 egg free range
  • 3 tbsp pumpkin puree
  • 1-2 tbsp sugar (I used coconut sugar) or any dry sugar (use erythritol for a keto version)
  • 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice or you can just use cinnamon if that's what you have

Instructions
 

  • Crack the egg into a small bowl and break up the yolk.
  • Add the almond flour, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and sugar.
  • Mix everything together with a fork or whisk.
  • Spray a mug or ramekin lightly with oil.
  • Pour in the batter.
  • Microwave for ~90 seconds.
  • Depending on your microwave you might need an extra 30-60 seconds.
  • Stay with it and only microwave 20 seconds at a time after the initial 90 seconds so you don't get a pumpkin mug cake explosion.
