Ingredients

6 tbsp Self Raising Flour
4 tbsp Brown sugar
1 number Apple-peeled, cored and grated
2 tbsp Canola oil
0.5 tsp Ground cinnamon
2 tbsp Milk
1 medium Egg-lightly beaten

Directions

Distribute the dry ingredients evenly between two large mugs and stir well.
In a jug, combine the egg, milk, oil and apple. Stir well and add half in each cup.
Using a dessert spoon, mix the two mugs well making sure you get all the dry flour in the bottom.
Cover the mug loosely with cling wrap and microwave on high for 2 minutes (based on an 800 watt oven).
Allow to stand for a minute to cool slightly, then carefully run a knife around the inside to loosen.
Tip the cake out onto a plate and serve with butter and a sprinkle of cinnamon and white sugar or nutmeg, or you can add custard, whipped cream or ice cream!
Recipe Tips and hints
Apple Teacake in a Mug is not suitable to freeze.
You may need to adjust the cooking times depending on your microwave to avoid overcooking the cake. Try cooking for 1 minute, and if it needs longer, additional bursts of 15 seconds until it is cooked to your liking.
