Cloudy evening, down with cold, craving for ginger and honey but no mood to spend a long time in the kitchen. What do I do?? Mix up ingredients of my choice and come up with a delicious mug cake!! Yeah time to give myself a treat :) The flavor ginger, added with honey was so soothing to my soar throat. But please do not consider this as a medicine ;) It would taste divine anytime and this is my most favorite mug cake till date!
No maida, no egg, no butter - so this is a healthy treat that is perfect for sudden sweet cravings!! To top it up, it takes a maximum of 5 minutes for preparation and baking (Much lesser time to finish it off ;) )
Recipe source - Priya's easy and tasty recipes. From the original recipe, I replace carrot with ginger and half the sugar with honey and was absolutely delighted with this wacky experiment!
