5 Microwave Mug Meals (Mug Pizza, Brownie in a Mug & More!) | Gemma's Bigger Bolder Baking
Hi Bold Bakers! When it comes to mug recipes,I have you covered for breakfast and dessert.
But now in this one video, I am going to showyou a mug recipe for every meal. From granola,
to mac and cheese, to even pizza in a mug.These recipes are real game changers. So let’s
get started.
We’re going to kick this off with breakfast,the most important meal of the day. And did
you know you can make granola in a microwave?It comes out crunchy and just like it’s
baked. Let me show you how. In a microwavablemug, add in your maple syrup, flavorless oil
(I used coconut), and water. To this add inyour oats, coconut, salt, and nuts. And then
mix it all together. What I love about thisgranola is that it’s full of natural sugars.
You can add in whatever flavor you like andalso, it’s great for vegans. Now that this
guy is mixed, we’re going to pop it intothe microwave for one minute. Then you want
to give it a stir, and then pop it back inagain for another thirty seconds. You’ll
keep on going until your granola is lovelyand golden brown and you’ll see it start
to get crispy and dry. The timing that I givefor my mug recipes is based on my microwave,
which is 1200 watts. So make sure that youcheck yours because your timing may vary.
And as always, all my recipes can be foundon www.biggerbolderbaking.com. Once your granola
is done cooking, this is what it looks like.It’s a beautiful golden brown and you can
probably hear it is lovely and toasted. Eventhe nuts are. It’s hard to believe you can
make this in a microwave. We’re going totake our homemade granola and make it into
a complete breakfast. I like to eat my granolawith some greek yogurt and some berries on
top. Granola paired with yogurt and berriesis a perfect balanced breakfast and a great
way to start your day. You can even mix upyour granola the day before and then cook
it off the next morning. Ok we’re goingto move on to our next meal.
Now that we’re done with breakfast, we’regoing to move on to lunch. And you will not
believe how easy it is to make mac and cheesein a microwave. For this recipe, you want
a very large microwavable mug or even a bowlbecause you don’t want the water to overflow
while cooking. Into your bowl, add in yourmacaroni noodles. Use small noodles because
they cook faster. Onto your noodles, pourin cold water. Now we’re going to microwave
this until it’s fully cooked. It just takesa few minutes. You’ll know when your macaroni
is cooked because your noodles will have plumpedup and they’ll be really nice and tender.
Our next step is to drain off this water andadd in the rest of our ingredients. To make
our mac and cheese sauce, we’re going toadd in some milk, corn starch or corn flour,
lovely sharp cheddar, and of course some pepperand salt to season. And then simply mix all
these ingredients together. The reason weadd in the corn flour is because it thickens
it and binds it all together. Also, if youwant to add in some vegetables or meat in,
you totally can. All we have to do now ispop it back in the microwave for a few more
seconds, let the cheese melt and create thatsauce, and we will be eating homemade mac
and cheese in no time. This incredibly easyhomemade mac and cheese requires no pots and
pans, just a big mug and few minutes. Yourmac and cheese does not need much dressing
up. So I like to put just a little bit ofparsley on top. I have no doubt that you can
make this mac and cheese faster than you canmake it from a box. And you know what, this
tastes better and it’s better for you. Okon to our next meal.
Ok so we’ve had our lunch but it’s about3 o’clock in the afternoon when you start
to feel that slump. I have the perfect peanutbutter and banana muffin that has lovely all
natural sugars, no flour, and it’s fullof good energy. In a microwavable mug, we’re
going to mash up some fresh banana. To this,we’re going to add in some peanut butter,
an egg white, and some vanilla extract. Andthen whisk it all together. Don’t worry,
if you don’t like peanut butter or are allergic,you can use any kind of nut butter you like.
So to this, I’m going to add oat flour,which is just ground up oats in a food processor.
But you can always use regular flour or wholewheat flour. Next add ground cinnamon, baking
powder, and a pinch of salt. And then mixall of these ingredients together. In just
a few minutes, our afternoon snack is readyfor the microwave. A healthy snack needs to
be something you can whip up when you’rehungry. And it does not get much faster than
this peanut butter and banana muffin. Thissnack does not need a lot. I like to add a
little bit of fresh banana and a sprinklingof cinnamon. This mug cake is a perfect pick
me up for the afternoon or even to give yousome great energy after a workout. And it
tastes great too.
Now it’s dinner time and we’re havingpizza made in a mug. Words can not describe
how great this recipe is, so I’m just goingto get started and you can see for yourselves.
In a microwavable mug, add in your flour,baking powder, baking soda, and a pinch of
salt. And then mix them all together. Intoour dry mix, I’m going to add in milk and
olive oil. And then mix all these ingredientstogether. And that’s our pizza base done.
Super fast. Ok now like any great pizza, nextthing we’re going to put on is our sauce.
Gently spoon your sauce onto your pizza base.And then just spread it around with your spoon.
Now you can add on any toppings you like becauseit’s your pizza. I’m going to add on cheese,
mini pepperonis, and some dried herbs. Ourmug pizza is ready for the microwave. Now
I haven’t steered you wrong yet, so I reallycan’t wait for you to see when this is done.
Our microwave pizza is ready. This is themoment I wanted you to see. Look at that mug
pizza. Doesn’t it look fantastic and itsmells amazing. So you can make one of these
and even eat it faster than you can get apizza delivered. So the next time you want
a pizza, this is your guy. This pizza is readyto eat as is. So I guess you’re wondering
what this looks and tastes like because believeme, before I made it, I was too. But check
this out, it has a lovely pastry base withall that lovely marinara sauce and cheese
on top and of course the little pepperonismake it taste really good too. It tastes just
like pizza. It’s soft, it’s gooey, it’sinsane. You have to try this.
Well you’re probably wondering what dessertcould be for our grand finale. And it is a
chocolatey, fudgiest brownie made in a microwave.In a microwavable mug, add in your flour,
brown sugar, cocoa powder, and a pinch ofsalt. And then mix all these ingredients together.
To your dry ingredients, add in your flavorlessoil (I used coconut), water, vanilla extract,
and chocolate chips. And then mix until youhave a batter. This brownie does not contain
eggs so it’s a really rich, indulgent cake.After all our lovely microwave meals, we’re
finally ready for dessert. No more do youhave to bake a big tray of brownies. You can
whip one up just for yourself and you don’thave to share. Simply serve your warm, fudgey
brownie with some vanilla ice cream and somechocolate shavings on top. As you can see,
this brownie is so rich and decadent and definitelythe perfect recipe to wrap up our microwave
mug meals. Whether you are looking for quickmeal options or even incredible desserts,
