Ragi Coconut Mug Cake | Glutenfreewhisk
Ragi is such a nutritious millet and ragi flour has been in my diet from past 4 years. Last winters, ragi mug cake with so many versions were my almost every day go to dessert and I have enjoyed every bit of it. In today's recipe I am sharing one best and simplest version of my Ragi mug cake that bakes so quickly in a microwave that I am sure it will be your daily dessert indulgence. The best part of this recipe is you mix everything in the same mug you want to microwave so no extra blunder of utensils.
Ragi flour is dry and requires good amount of ghee (oil for some or even butter for some but I prefer baking in ghee whenever I can). It also has an early, muddy taste and texture that can put you off in trying or even enjoying millets in your diet, but I have always liked millet flour, and I enjoy eating them.
This recipe requires a microwave for super quick one minute cake recipe but if you don't have a microwave, you can even bake it in the oven. Instead of using a mug, use normal cake tin but smaller in size and bake in an oven for 20-25 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius or until the skewer comes out clean.

INGREDIENTS
1 tbsp Ragi flour
A pinch of cinnamon powder
3 spoonful desiccated Coconut
2-3 spoonful Ghee
Brown sugar, as per taste
half a tsp baking soda
Chopped almonds and pumpkin seeds
2 pieces of Dark Chocolate (or any chocolate of your choice)
Chocolate Chips to decorate
water to make the batter
METHOD
1. In a microwave safe mug add the flour, coconut, cinnamon powder and mix. Now add sugar, baking soda, ghee and water and make a thick but pourable consistency batter. Add the pumpkin seed and almonds and give it a final mix.
2. Insert the 2 chocolate pieces in the center and decorate with chocolate chips.
3. Microwave it for 1 minute 20 seconds on high. Your Ragi mug cake is ready. Indulge!
TIP - Make sure the mug is only halfway full as the cake while baking will require space to rise. So, select the mug accordingly, so that the batter while rising does not ooze or pour out.
