Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
- A pinch of salt
- 1 egg
Instructions
- Prepare the Mixing Bowl: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add Wet Ingredients: In the same bowl, add the milk, oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix everything together until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
- Cook: Pour the batter into a microwave-safe mug or bowl. Microwave on high for about 1 minute 30 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on your microwave’s power. The cake should rise and firm up slightly but still be soft and moist.
- Check for Doneness: If the cake still looks wet or doughy in the center, microwave in 15-second intervals until fully cooked.
- Serve: Allow the cake to cool slightly before enjoying. You can top it with powdered sugar, whipped cream, or a scoop of ice cream if desired.
