If you're looking for a quick and healthy treat, this microwave vanilla banana oat cake is perfect for you. It's easy to make with just a few simple ingredients, and it's ready in minutes. This delightful cake is packed with the natural sweetness of banana and the comforting flavor of vanilla, making it an ideal snack or a light breakfast option.
Instructions:
- Peel the banana and place it in a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl or mug.
- Measure out the egg whites, oats, baking powder, and vanilla extract.
- Use a fork or a small potato masher to mash the banana until it becomes a smooth paste.
- Add the egg whites to the mashed banana and stir well until fully combined.
- Pour in the vanilla extract and mix thoroughly.
- Add the oats and baking powder to the banana mixture.
- Stir well until everything is combined and there are no lumps of baking powder.
- Make sure the mixture is in a microwave-safe bowl or mug. Smooth the top of the mixture with the back of a spoon for even cooking.
- Place the bowl or mug in the microwave.
- Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes. The exact time may vary depending on your microwave's power. Start with 2 minutes and then check if it's done; if not, continue in 30-second increments until the cake is fully cooked. The cake is done when it has risen, is firm to the touch, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Carefully remove the bowl or mug from the microwave (it will be hot). Let the cake cool for a minute or two before eating.
- You can top your cake with a dollop of yogurt, a drizzle of honey, or a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired.
- Enjoy your Deliciously Easy Microwave Vanilla Banana Oat Cake warm!
