So I may have missed the Halloween boat with this recipe, but personally, pumpkin is good anytime between September and February for me!
I came up with this variation on other mug cakes I’ve made when I had some spare tinned pumpkin in the fridge and I just really fancied cake. Let’s face it, sometimes you just fancy cake right? Anyways, I had to add some chocolate chips to the mix because chocolate chips make everything 10 times better.
I made this with coconut flour, which does give it a pudding like quality, especially if you cook it slightly underdone so you get that melted chocolate pudding cake type thing going on.
If you can’t get hold of tinned pumpkin (Waitrose sell it) then cooked and mashed sweet potato or squash would also work.
I made one giant cake in a large mug, but the following recipe would probably make two decent servings.

Have you made a mug cake yet? Have you tried tinned pumpkin before?
Looks absolutely delicious Laura :D Love the new look of your website by the way ;)
Thanks Nadia!
Yum, just pinned! :-D
Yey!
This looks so good! I sometimes make a “Beltsander Brownie” for when I need a quick but not too naughty cake fix! x
Mmm that sounds good!
I still have never made a mug cake, but I have some pumpkin in the fridge as I have been having it in my porridge, so I might make this later…
Do let me know if you’ve tried it!
Just made this & absolutely _love_ it!! Soo tasty and just the perfect treat for a rainy morning :)
