Keto Lemony Ricotta Mug Cake


The one thing I absolutely miss when grabbing a keto friendly Starbucks drink, is hands down their soft delicious lemon loaf! I know I can't be the only one. So that's how this recipes came about. I LOVE lemon desserts & treats. I knew I needed to come up with a recipes that was equally delicious. Let me tell you! This did NOT disappoint! Even my husband was impressed so much that he told me to hold on to this recipe for a bit. But he should know me by now, when I am excited over recipes I HAVE to share it! This can easily be for one person or if you're feeling nice you can share half. Sharing is caring after all. Well, here it is. The best lemon ricotta mug cake EVER!

Spray a microwave safe bowl and transfer mixture to it. Smooth out & microwave for 1 minute, will still be wet and jiggly so add it in for another minute. Just to make sure I did another 30 seconds, 2 minutes 30 seconds total. You be the judge. Top with your favorite toppings like whip & ENJOY!
