Cinnamon Roll Mug Cake

Back with another recipe! This one has xponentially lower sugar and calories than a food court offering. The trick is the special frosting, which is a much healthier option than commercial ones. But I researched all that, so you don't have to! Still, it's delicious enough, that you won't miss anything. So, if anybody's hungry, let's get into it!

These are perfect for brunch or entertaining, because even all the parts come together so easily. I just enjoyed one myself last weekend! They're a bit different from regular cinnamon rolls, but they're big enough, each one is a full serving. The Greek yogurt frosting makesit heart healthy. (For more, visit (nih.gov) And to make one of your own, you'll need:

1/3 cup Greek yogurt 

1/2 cup mashed banana 

1/2 cup any flour 

2 tbsp rolled oats 

Baking powder 

Pinch salt/cinnamon. 

To start with, mix your dry ingredients together in a large, microwave safe mug. Next, get a medium bowl, and mix in the yogurt with your mashed banana. You could try apple sauce, but I haven't yet. Combine this thouroughly with your dry ingredients. Stir in raisins, or dates, and microwave on high for 90-120 seconds. At this point, carefully remove it from the microwave, and set it aside.

This bit is really the clincher. You can do it afterwards, or you could even have a double batch standing by, if that's easier. Whatever you decide, to make the frosting, you'll need: 

1/2 cup Greek Yogurt  or soft Cream Cheese 

1/4 cup confectioner's (powdered) sugar

The Greek yogurt is, naturally, lower in fat and cholesterol than the cream cheese. But both are healthier than butter. Either way, in a seperate bowl, combine ingredients and top cake with the mixture. Make sure it's cooled before eating, and enjoy!

I hope that blessed you. For a little more, check out voiceintha on blogspot, facebook, X, and instagram       Thanks!
