Makes 1 lava cake

Ingredients

2 tablespoons oats (blended into the consistency of flour)
4 tablespoons milk
1 scoop FlavCity Brownie Batter Protein Smoothie powder
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 teaspoon maple syrup
.25 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 squares of dark chocolate (for the "lava" center)
Optional toppings: whipped coconut cream, chocolate chips, fresh raspberries and a pinch of salt.

Directions

In a microwave-safe mug or ramekin, mix together the oat flour, milk, FlavCity Brownie Batter Smoothie, cocoa powder, maple syrup, and salt until smooth.
Push a square or two of dark chocolate into the center of the batter. Make sure the batter covers the chocolate.
Microwave on high for 45 seconds. Check the cake's doneness, it should be set around the edges and slightly gooey in the middle. If it’s too wet, microwave in 10-second increments until just done.
Add whipped coconut cream or any desired toppings, and enjoy it warm!

Recipe notes:

If using FlavCity plant-based protein smoothie, be sure to increase the amount to 2 scoops.

If making this cake in the oven, preheat to 350F, use an oven-safe mug/ramekin, and bake for 15-20 minutes.
