Ingredients

1 scoop strawberry protein powder
1 tablespoon coconut flour
2 tablespoons monk fruit sweetener or other sweetener
1 large egg
1/4 cup cottage cheese
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

Place all the ingredients into a blender and processor until smooth. This is a great way of removing the cottage cheese lumps.
Pour the mixture into a microwave-safe mug and Microwave on high for 60–90 seconds, depending on your microwave’s power. The cake should be set but still soft in the center.
Let it cool for a minute before digging in. You can top it with fresh strawberries, Greek yogurt, or a drizzle of almond butter for extra flavor!
