Microwave Banana Cake | Easy & Healthy Mug Cake Recipe | Em's Kitchen 

Best microwave recipe i have tried so far. Here's some tips though: - for the love of god use enough baking soda. I didn't at first and it turned into weirdly solid pancake batter. - 45 seconds might not be enough. The cake should be solid, it'll probably be a little white on the top but it should be mostly brownish - don't be discouraged because it didn't work the first time. Try again! - chocalate chips instead of raisins is great in case you were wondering - some vanilla extract might be nice, i'll try it soon - it's not very big, you might as well use the whole banana and add double of all the ingredients - let it cool down before eating. I learned this the hard way..

omg I have all the ingredients for once in my life.. making this

I didn’t know what to do with the other half of the banana so I just made another one :)

I've been making this for months, al least 3 times a week. I use chocolate chips instead of raisins, vegetable milk instead of regular one, and tablespoon of ground flaxseed for more fiber, also used oat flour instead of wheat. I don't like to use honey either, I feel it kinda overrides the other flavors in the mix. The recipe is highly customizable :)

My bananas were all in a paste and I opened the fridge to get some milk. There weren't any. Now I have a mug filled with mushed banana. I don't even like bananas. This is a sad quarantined night.

Alright people, stop whatever you're doing and *GO AHEAD AND MAKE THIS*.. I made and it was delicious!!

Been making for around 6 months now and still delicious! I made it with an extra half of banana without doubling the rest and although the texture was more dense it was really good!

I just made this for 3 people including myself. It was AMAZING! It tastes like an oatmeal cookie combined with carrot cake. Btw I used oat flour instead of whole wheat flour. 😋

I made these with my kids earlier - we had to use plain flour instead of whole wheat as we didn't have any in. They went down a storm and will definitely make them again! Thanks for the recipe :)

I must leave a comment! I literally saw this 5 min ago and made it as I have all the ingredients on hand. It tasted SO GOOD. I substituted the oil with melted butter and the raisin with the other hand remaining of the banana (into slices topped with some butter), reduced to 5g of honey, and I microwaved for 40 seconds instead of 45 seconds. Oh ye, I forgot to add the cinnamon. It tasted so warm, moist! Thank you for such an awesome recipe.

I made this with 1 tsp stevia instead of honey, 1 tbsp chopped walnuts instead of raisins. Microwaved for 50 seconds in a 1000 watt oven. Drizzled with a bit of sugar free maple syrup. (I'm diabetic) Delicious!

Best recipe EVER! I add some crushed walnuts in my mug and it was so good!

I made this without the raisins and added one tablespoon on sugar instead. Turned out amazing!!!!! Love the banana and cinnamon combo 🥰

Just made this for my mom😁she loved it. Thanks for sharing this recipe

This worked great for me! Subbed honey with a tbsp of brown sugar and added walnuts and omitted the salt. Cooked for about 100 seconds checking on it in between and it came out nice! First mug cake I was able to actually plop out of the mug onto a plate! Great work 👋🏾💯 Edit: Making another one for breakfast 👷🏾‍♂️🍌

If you don’t have whole wheat flour you can blitz some oats until they are the same texture as flour. I did that and it tastes great!

I just did it and I'm surprised by how well it turned out! I've never had a mug cake so moist before ! I just substituted honey by sugar, baking soda by baking powder, whole wheat flour by all purpose and raisins by dark chocolate

I've tried this but with regular flour and about 2/3 of the banana. It was amazing. Everybody go try this)

This is such a perfect recipe. I love it. However it turned out perfect on my third try because of the microwave settings I guess. I doubled the recipe amd cooked it for 1 min and 48 secs. I also replaced raisins with dates and it was amazing. Sprinkled a little sugar on the top as well. Thanks a lot :) subscribed! It's such a quick and healthy snack. My mom definitely approves 😉👍

It's Apple picking time in Iowa.. got to try your mug cakes.. great idea for a 62 yr old solo female. Thank you. Very smart 💜💛💜

This is by far one of the best mug recipes I’ve tried in quarantine, thanks a lot Em’s kitchen 🥰

I watched almost all the mug videos and now I want a mug exactly like that

I did it with blue berries and peanut butter instead of raisins and honey and it went very good 😊

I just made this and my mind is blown by how awesome it turned out! 😲 Tips: Use more banana than you think you need I added one tbsp all purpose white flour it made it VERY soft Mix your wet ingredients VERY WELL I mean beat them in the mug with your fork until they look whipped. Beat your dry ingredients in very well too. Dough should be on the wetter side, makes softer bread. I substituted honey with 2.5 spoons of sugar. Worked just as well.

Just made it cuz kinda a sweet craving, absolutely delicious! I added extra honey just to make it even more sweet 10/10 would recommend

Just clicked this one because I have bananas in the house just me? Okay

It was a good recipe .. I tried out this with mashed banana, butter, milk, dates, raisins and instant oats and ground peanut. No sugar. It cameout as a superb healthy full breakfast .. Love this. Thank u.

This is like the only mug cake I’ve ever been successful in !! Thank you so much for uploading this video!!!

I did this today and it was so good! I used pumpkin spice in mine instead of cinnamon and it turned out really good

1/2 plátano batido 1 cucharada leche 1/2 cucharada aceite o mantequilla 1/2 cucharada miel 3 cucharadas harina de trigo 1/8 cucharadita bicarbonato de sodio 1/4 cucharadita canela 1/8 cucharadita sal 1 cucharada pasitas o nueces Microondas por 45 segundos.

I was craving for something sweet and had a really bad day, this was really comforting, i forgot about salt , didn't had cinnamon powder and replaced raisins with cashews still turned out great 👍

It's a great simple recipe Em! I absolutely love the idea of making desserts this way. What do you think, can I replace wheat flour with ground oats in this recipe?

I didn’t have cinnamon or baking soda so made it without it. Still came out nice enough. Will try again when I’ve got all the ingredients.

I’m I the only one who had to microwave it more than 2 minutes? I took it out at 45s and it wasn’t ready at all. Then cooked it for another minute and a half checking on it every 15 seconds. After that time it was really good 👍🏼

Yr she is right perfect mug cake i cant imagine seriously i always buy muffen fron shop but now i know i will make by my own with my own flavours thank u ❤

I tried this many times and here are some tips: 1. If your banana is not ripe, microwave it for 30 seconds WITH the peel, if its still not ripe enough repeat. 2. Use All purpose flour instead of whole wheat flour for god’s sake. Whole wheat flour has a disgusting smell. 3. Add one full tablespoon of honey instead of half. Trust me it tastes better. 4. In my microwave it takes 2 mins. It depends on the microwave wattage so it differs. Poke a tooth pick or chop stick through it when done if it doesn’t come out clear microwave for another 30 seconds and check with toothpick again. 5. Honestly you don’t need cinnamon, if you dont have it, you can skip it. I think the cinnamon counters the odd smell of whole wheat. I tried both with it and without it, and i like it without. 6. For those people who are complaining that it’s coming out like a paste, check your cup, use ceramic/ china not glass other material. 7. I feel you need 1/8 plus half of the 1/8 of baking powder or soda they mentioned. I used baking soda only.

I always fail these kinda videos but I tried and it worked! I added some peanut butter instead of raisins and baking powder instead of baking soda. I microwaved it for about 2 min bc 45sec wasn’t enough and it’s amazing!

Made this today. It turned out amazingly good. Thank you for the recipe. P.S. I used curd instead of milk(because that's what was available) and it made no difference.

100% approve. Last time I made it, it came out piping hot so as I was too impatient, I poured cold milk over it until it was all soaked. I know it might sound weird but for me it took it to the next level.

Awesome video! Quick and delicious cake! Thanks for sharing!

Made today and it was MOTHERFRIGGIN AWESOME!!! Rlly recommend. Of course a messed up the measuresments A BIT but it was the first time I made smt that ended up being delicious... yeah... Used spelt flour and sliced almonds instead of raisins cause I can't stand them. Yummmyyyyy.....

Recipe written down (also in description) 1/2 Medium Ripe Banana (Mashed) 1 Tbsp Milk (dairy or non-dairy) 1/2 Tbsp Coconut Oil (or canola oil) 1/2 Tbsp Honey 3 Tbsp Whole Wheat Flour 1/4 Tsp Cinnamon 1/8 Tsp Baking Soda 1/8 Tsp Salt 1 Tbsp Raisins Mix all the ingredients, then cook in the microwave for about 45 seconds and enjoy! (1000 watt microwave used)

Tried this out today to pass some time :) used white flour instead and it came out yummy! Awesome recipe 👩‍🍳

This looks so good 😊 I have all the ingredients on hand ! I’ll give this a try. 👍🏻

Just made 6 perfect cupcakes... came together in 10 min...spongy, flavorful, retained their shape and moistness, not at all dense like banana bread despite the wholewheat flour... thank you so much👌👍😊

I grew up eating banana bread with chocolate chips and it was rlly good

I just made a Banana mug cake following your recipe and it turned out to be the most perfect moist banana bread I ever had. I usually have a very bad experience making cup cakes but I am pleasantly surprised that this turned out to be well. Gonna make one more. Thank you

Can you change the oil to melted butter and the whole flour to regular white? What would be the measurements?

I didn’t have any raisins so I substituted it with chocolate chunks and wow it was THE most amazing thing I’ve ever made in less than 5 minutes! I didn’t have honey so I used sugar and it was still flawless😍 demolished that cake in less than 5 mins too🤣🤣

I just made it and it tastes delicious... thank you so much for this recipe. I used apples instead of raisins, which went pretty good:)

Wowww I don’t think I have ever made something that delicious I switched the honey for sugar and added a little almond flour and the rest whole wheat

Either omit the raisins or replace them with chocolate chips. Raisins are what you give people you don't like.

You knew somebody will look at this recipe in the midnight 🤪😂

Our microwave stopped working few days ago and i swear ALL microwaves recipes started to pop up on my feed

My daughter and I just made this! Yummy! Instead of raisins, we used slithered almonds.

Just made it...a disaster lol but I'm eating it

Best microwave recipe❤ I used 50 seconds for 900 watt... It's purely a banana cinnamon magic💃

AAAAhhhh Banana cake ! ! ! Very nice recipe my friend ! ! ! ! I love this one ..... Hello from PARIS and FRANCE my friend ! ! ! ! 😍🍚💛🍓🍭🍊🍎💖🍄

Tried this recipe. Had to double everything cause my bowl is bigger. The steps are easy to follow. Forgot to buy the cinnamon so the cake is pale 😝 since my daughter doesnt like raisin, changed it to chopped almonds. Microwaved it longer than 45 sec, cause it was still lumpy 😰...in total about 1 min and it turned out awesome! Thank u for uploading this easy to make banana cake with MICROWAVE! 😘♥️

SIMPLE AND EASY AND LOOKING SO TASTY THANK YOU

Great, easy n yummy... Few things I added.... Doubled the recipe, Choco chips, an egg, walnuts, some jaggery. Came out quite nice... Thx

I love oatmeal but this is going to take its place as my morning pre-run carb load meal - then of course after ten miles you have to refill all your glycogen and there's that other half a banana just sitting there so... 😀 Thanks for the recipe!

I just wanna say I LOVE banana mugcakes and I come to this same video every time

Definitely gonna try this next week ❤️and I loooveee your editing! 👌

Delicious!! - used butter instead of oil - brown sugar instead of honey - I made double the amount because I wanted to use the whole banana: took 2 mins 30 secs to fully cook

Mine turned out to be undercooked ( even when I kept it for 3-4 minutes ) and is very chewy.

This tasted so good I added a little too much banana so it took a longer time to cook. Thankyou for the recipe!

This is really yummy., but I used apples instead of raisins

LOVE THIS. I used almond milk and maple syrup because I didn’t have honey and it was soooo gooooood

The name of this in Canary Islands is "Plátano con gofio" (Banana with toasted cornmeal)

i made this but i modified the recipe a bit and it turned out great! i put it in the oven in a oven safe dish instead of the microwave 1/2 mashed banana 1tsp vanilla extract 2 tbsp greek yogurt (instead of oil) 1 tbsp milk 1/4 tsp baking soda 1 tbsp maple syrup cinnamon 3 tbsp oat flour

I would mix in chocolate chips in that bad boy!

Done this twice and tastes really good.

Great Recipe! It didn’t turn out quite as thick, it was sort of liquidy and I don’t know what I did wrong. It was still very good though.

you are amazing,tried this today and it worked. I microwaved it for 90 seconds though and it turned out just fine. I'm gonna do this again for my nieces when I go home after quarantine 😘😘😘😘

GUYS IDK WHAT I DID WRONG BUT IT ALL EXPLODED AND I WENT ALL OVER THE MICROWAVE 👁️👄👁️🏃‍♂️

this. was. amazing! i used chocolate chips instead of raisins and microwaved it for 1:40 :)

COVID19 got us doing this anyway thanks YT for this recommendations

My little brother and I made this at home alone. Really good and easy! But you may have to heat it in the microwave for more than 45s.

How many watts does your microwave have? For me 45 sec wasn't nearly enough, it took several minutes and still kind of doughy (micro was on full power).

Doubled recipe used 1/4 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tbs fresh lemon juice, substituted choc chips for raisins, & organic maple syrup for honey, (could have used less than 1 tbs) not sure if I doubled coconut oil, instead of w wheat flour I used rice flour + a splash of vanilla essence. Result was a spectacular MOCHI! Microwave was only 850 watts. 180 sec was not enough, 210 sec might have worked but 240 sec (4 minutes) made the mochi texture. Loved the taste and hope not to become addicted.

I tried it but it came out kind of mushy. Definitely not like bread. And definitely had to microwave longer than 45 seconds. Did anyone have an issue with consistency

La mejor receta en microondas, 100% recomendado, es muy rico y fácil de hacer, por primera vez tengo todos los ingredientes, se siente bien hacer una receta de vez en cuando

Hello, I just wanna make it but in the oven. How much time takes in the oven? Thanks

Yummy! Enjoyed it! And I like your recipes because they usually work! Had to cook this one a lot longer (app 3 min with a 800Watt microwave) though. I thought it was rather sweet, so I'll probably reduce the honey to one tsp next time - depending on the ripeness of the banana that is...

Can we use normal flour instead of whole wheat flour ?

Thank you! I had one banana left and wanted to make a quick dessert for my brother and I. This is PERFECT!

I use engine oil for a darker and denser result.

Have made this twice already and I love it. I added a lil water the first time because it looked thick, turns out it'll not be as fluffy if you do. Second time around, stuck to the recipe (replaced oil with peanut butter) and it turned out great! :D

Question: how does the whole thing rises? Bakingsoda only reacts with an sour, and there is no sour ingredient in the recipe? I gave it a try and followed the recipe but it did not rase like in the video.

merci. My 2nd turn of a cake in a mug much better success than last time

Can I use oats instead of cake powder?

I used cooking oil, cake flour and sugar to replace coconut oil wheat flour + baking soda and honey, it was a success. Thank you for doing this! And i also didn't have cinamon 😂

I hate raisins ): Am I the only one? ..... Thought so 😂

I made it today and it was so tasty 😍 it was so simple and my entire family loved it ❤️ I topped it with chocolate syrup ! Thank you for the amazing recipe 😊

Tried this and failed miserably. :(

Best mugcake I’ve ever had!!!

I followed the instructions and end result is uncooked mug cake..

Please never heat honey!! But loved that you used whole wheat flour. Got to try this tomorrow..
