Apple and maple pudding mugcake
Ingredients
Looking for an express, comforting dessert that's perfect for the sugaring season? Discover our pudding-style mugcake with Empire apples and Quebec maple syrup, ready in less than two minutes! This ultra-easy individual dessert is prepared directly in a mug, offering a soft, gourmet result with a delicious sweet coulis at the bottom.
Quebec Empire apples, picked locally at the peak of ripeness, give this mugcake a melt-in-the-mouth texture, a perfect balance of sweetness and light acidity, and a crunchy touch that makes every bite irresistible.
For the dough:
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 2 tablespoons milk or vegetable drink
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon applesauce
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 2 tbsp. apple cubes Quebec Empire apples
For the sauce:
- 2 tbsp. maple syrup
- 1 tbsp. 15% cream
- 1 tablespoon hot water
Preparation
In a microwave-safe mug, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Add milk, applesauce, oil and maple syrup. Mix well to form a smooth dough. Add the diced apples and stir gently to combine.
In a small bowl, combine the maple syrup, cream and hot water, then pour gently over the dough without stirring. Microwave for approx. 1 min 30 to 1 min 35 (depending on power). The top should be cooked, and a sweet sauce will form underneath. Leave to rest for 1 minute and serve hot.
To make a success of your mugcake:
- Choose a cup large enough to avoid overflowing during cooking.
- For an even more gourmet touch, sprinkle your mugcake with crunchy pecans or a pinch of cinnamon.
- Need a dairy-free version? Simply replace the cream with soy cream or coconut milk.
