Low Calorie Mug Cakes for a Filling Breakfast
These blackberry and raspberry mug cakes are deliciously low in calories and make for a substantial breakfast dish, snack or even an evening treat.
Since culinary-superstar and slimming food-blogger Debs (@slimmingworlddebsx) switched us onto them, the team at Lo-Dough have fallen head over heels in love with Lo-Dough mug-cakes.
Prepped in just a few minutes and cooked in even fewer, these redefine the meaning of fast food. Super low calorie and low-carb too, these fruity beauties can be served as an early morning pick-me-up or an indulgent, sweet evening-treat.
Why not take the pre-prepared mix into the office (just put the wet mix into a Tupperware pot), transfer to a mug, microwave for two minutes and then head back to your desk to be the envy of all your colleagues?
