Sometimes you just fancy a slice of bread without having to make a large loaf! This mug bread recipe is perfect for one and so speedy and simple to make. If you don’t have a microwave you can still use this recipe – just bake in the oven but make sure your mug is ovenproof! I often switch half the almond flour for chocolate or vanilla protein powder to increase the protein levels.
You can make this vegan by swapping the egg for 1 heaped tablespoon of ground flaxseed mixed into 2tbsp water and allow it to soak for 5 minutes before using. Watch our video of how to make it here

Almond Flour is a wonderful protein rich, low glycemic flour. Rich in heart healthy monounsaturated fats and vitamin E. It is perfect for stabilising blood sugar levels and energising the body – filling and really satisfying.
Vary the flavourings in this recipe -instead of apple puree you could use some mashed banana or for a less sweet option mashed sweet potato or butternut squash. Take out the vanilla and cinnamon and flavour with garlic salt or a dash of paprika for a savoury version.
2tbsp almond flour
