Microwave Lemon Strawberry Cake - The Kreative Life

I’ve seen a lot of recipes that take just minutes to make, but this one literally takes the cake! I’ve seen microwave mug chocolate cakes, but I knew I had to try something a little more kreative. Who knew that such a yummy lemon strawberry cake could be made in the microwave in less than two minutes? Yep, you “heard” me right! Two minutes! Enjoy!

Ingredients

Filling

10 Large Strawberries, Sliced
3 Tsp. Sugar
1 Tsp. Light Corn Syrup
½ Tsp. Lemon Zest

Cake

4 Tbsp. All-Purpose Flour
4 Tbsp. Granulated Sugar
¼ Tsp. Baking Powder
3 Tbsp. Vanilla Soy Milk
1 Tbsp. Cooking Oil
1 Tsp. Lemon Extract
1 Tsp. Lemon Zest
1 Egg
4 Drops Yellow Food Color

Directions
In small microwaveable bowl, heat ingredients for filling for 30 seconds. Pour filling into ramekin or other microwavable bowl.

In small mixing bowl, mix dry ingredients for cake, then mix in remaining ingredients for cake. Mix until batter is smooth. Evenly pour batter over strawberry filling. Microwave for 1 ½ minutes.

      Hi, Holly! If you want to try a little healthier version, substitute the sugar with apple sauce. I bet it will taste great! Thanks for stopping by!

    This is my second time hearing about cakes done in 1 to 2 minutes. I’m missing out staying in the kitchen forever baking cakes. The other cake was chocolate, now strawberry. I gotta try these short baking cakes. Hopefully mines will come out as cute as yours. Visiting from http://makeitorfixit.com and following you. Stop by when you get a chance.
