Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 egg, 1 tablespoon of melted butter, 2 tablespoons each of coconut flour and almond flour, and 2 tablespoons of heavy whipping cream. Mix in the low-carb sweetener, 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until smooth.
  2. Grease a microwave-safe mug or ramekin with a little butter. Carefully pour the batter into the prepared mug, filling about halfway.
  3. Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for 90 seconds. Check that the top feels firm to the touch.
  4. In a non-stick pan over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter with your favorite low-carb sweetener. Add chopped pecans, stirring for about 2-3 minutes until golden and caramelized.
  5. Remove the mug cake from the microwave and let it sit to cool slightly. Top with the warm caramelized pecans.
