One of the rules I live by: If something is good, do/make/buy more of it. One of my favorite recipes on this site is my Keto Pancake Mug Cake, so of course I had to make more variations! I have a few in the works and I don’t think you’ll be sad that the first one is this Keto Blueberry Pancake Mug Cake.

With the addition of blueberries and just the tiniest tweak of the original recipe, you’ll end up with a tasty fruity mug cake that will satisfy your fruit cravings without kicking you out of ketosis. You can top it with butter, maple-flavored syrup, or my favorite super easy glaze icing (recipe below).

If you want pancakes in the morning but don’t want to waste time with the stove, this recipe is for you!

Ingredients Needed for a Keto Blueberry Pancake Mug Cake

Ingredient quantities are located in the recipe card at the end of the post.

Coconut Flour: I’ve tried several coconut flour brands, and TerraSoul is my favorite so far. Their coconut flour is light and fresh.

Swerve Confectioners: If you’re looking for a sugar substitute, you’ll love Swerve Confectioners! It uses (natural) sugar alcohols which have zero effect on blood sugar, meaning you can subtract them from the net carb count. (That gives Swerve zero net carbs.) It also measures just like sugar, so there isn’t any guessing about how much to use. I purchase the 48 oz. bags because they are convenient and a much better price per ounce than the 12 oz. bags.

Other ingredients:

• Butter (if you are dairy-free, you can use coconut oil instead)
• Baking powder
• Vanilla extract
• Large egg
• Blueberries
• Optional: ChocZero Maple Syrup (use coupon code FORGETSUGARFRIDAY for 10% off your order!)
• Optional: unsweetened almond or coconut milk (if you make the glaze)

How to Make a Keto Blueberry Pancake Mug Cake

This is just a quick overview of how to make the keto mug cake. For the recipe in detail, scroll to the recipe card at the end of the post.

Melt butter in a microwave-safe mug or ramekin. (I used a ramekin for most of these photos. I’ve discovered that I prefer a ramekin over a mug, but no worries if you don’t have one! It will still taste great.) To the melted butter, add vanilla extract and the egg, whisking to combine. In another small bowl, combine all dry ingredients. Reserve the blueberries.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet and combine thoroughly.

Then fold in your blueberries…

… and put your mug cake in the microwave. Microwave on high for one minute. When finished, put a fork in the mug cake and carefully lift it up and flip it over. If the bottom isn’t fully cooked yet (this will depend on your microwave), cook it for another few seconds.

Here is what you get if you use a ramekin vs. a mug. Different shapes, but delicious either way!

How to Top Your Keto Blueberry Pancake Mug Cake

• The most pancake-like topping would be butter and ChocZero Maple Syrup (use coupon code FORGETSUGARFRIDAY for 10% off your order!).
• Coconut oil is a great topping too!
• My preferred topping is a layer of butter and then a simple glaze icing. For a single mug cake, mix 1 1/2 tbsp Swerve Confectioners and 1 tsp unsweetened almond or coconut milk.
