Sugar-Free Cinnamon Roll Mug Muffin {Dairy & Gluten Free}

This single serve muffin is a perfectly quick and easy breakfast made in 2 minutes in a mug to go! It’s low carb, dairy free, gluten free and sugar free!

This recipe is an adaption of some of my other single serve muffins, Mint Chocolate Flax Muffin, Peanut Butter Flax Muffin and my Pumpkin Flax Muffin. Each are one single serving and easy to make in under 5 minutes!

I removed it from the mug so you could see it better but obviously it is easier to just eat with a spoon right in the mug itself.

Anyone who is busy with work or family knows moms usually never eat breakfast or eat scrapes off their kids plates. I avoid this at all costs and work hard to ensure I eat a healthy breakfast to start my day. Making a quick breakfast is easy, choosing to make it a healthy one can be a challenge, but these mug muffins I’ve got going are the perfect solution!

If you’ve never tried a mug muffin you are in for a treat! Once you make them you will never complain about not having enough time for breakfast again. 🙂

Brenda’s Notes:

You can stir the ingredients right in the mug you are using to cook it with but I found it easier to combine in a shallow bowl then pour in the mug.
You can use powdered stevia in the batter if you don’t have liquid, I would suggest 1-2 packets or 1/4 teaspoon pure stevia extract.
You can also make this in the oven at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes until you see it rise and cooked in the center.
