There is nothing more irritating to me than to not make something because I am on a curfew. When the June Eggless Baking Challenge, Jam Swirled Muffins as suggested by Priyaakka of Priya’s Versatile Recipes was declared, I really didn’t know what to do. I very well knew that I had no option of making a whole batch of muffins and inviting the wrath of my umma. Hehe… But then I wanted to make something close to it, as I did not want to miss the challenge, mainly because I am not guaranteed to complete the next two challenges, due to Ramadan, Eid and the summer vacations. I emailed Gayathri and asked her, if I put up a mug cake, would that do? She replied in affirmative. So there you go, to complete the challenge, I made an eggless mug cake with the jam in it and all I got was one spoon to it, remaining was wiped out by my B!!! Even the kids didn’t know an inkling about it… 🙂

i havent tried this popular mug cake, Rafee, the usual ones on the web is chocolate based and believe it or not, I am not a big fan of chocolate cake! I love vanilla cake tho, jam ones even better! This is bookmarked for one of my midnight feast, haha;-)
this was just an experiment jehanne, like u said most of them on the web are chocolate based and it wasn't bad… 🙂
Jam mug cake looks awesome, yummy and delicious Rafee 🙂
Thank u so mych nilu… 🙂
Hi Rafeeda, your mug cake definitely taste good. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
Best regards.
Thank u so much dear… 🙂
What a nice quick muffin? It looks very nice Rafeeda. And kudos to you for not missing out the challenge…
thank u so much gayathri… 🙂
I made this cake for breakfast and it was delicious! I added a little vanilla and only cooked it for two minutes. amazing.
Thank u so much for trying n letting me know… so glad it turned out good!!! 🙂
mine is in the microwave now, I can't say I'm not excited 🙂
Glad 2 know…hopefully u've like it… 🙂
Mm, that was delish. Mine rose quite a bit (but then I didn't measure anything so…) and was really fluffy but moist. Ate it with some whipped cream but it also could have been made into a buttered muffin (as if I need the extra fat but hey).
thank u so much for your feedback, tess… glad that it helped… 🙂
Just wanted to add, I have now used this basic foundation for loads of cakes and only made a few adjustments. My babies have both egg and milk protein allergies so I use water instead of milk and never noticed the difference. Also, I like more baking powder to get a bit more fluffiness. I have replaced 1 tbs. of flour with 1 of cocoa and used 4 tbs. of coffee (espresso would be even better) to made a delicious mocha cake. Would have chocolate chips if I could.
Also have used coconut oil and added 2 tbs. of shredded, unsweetened coconut (better if you soak this in the 4 tbs of water) and made a delish coconut cake. I will shortly be doing one woh applesauce and cinnamon. Oh the possibilities are endless and it works perfectly every time! Made a peanut butter and chocolate one too. Oh I'm addicted.
wow… u seem to have opened up doors to lot of adjustments!!! good work! 🙂 thanks a lot for sharing…
