How to make Banana Chocolate Peanut Butter Mug Cake| Eggless Banana Chocolate Peanut Butter Mug cake Recipe Under 2 Minutes
- Step 1
In a microwave-safe mug (12 oz size preferred), mash 1/2 of an overripe banana until smooth and lump-free.
- Step 2
In a separate small bowl (or directly into the mug), mix flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and baking soda.
- Step 3
Add milk, oil, and peanut butter to the mashed banana. Mix well until fully combined and creamy.
- Step 4
Add the dry mix to the wet banana mixture. Stir gently until everything is well incorporated. Avoid overmixing to keep the cake soft and fluffy.
- Step 5
Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high power for 1 minute. If it still looks wet in the center, microwave for another 10-15 seconds.
- Step 6
Let the mug cake rest for 1 minute. Serve warm as-is or top with extra banana slices, melted chocolate, or a drizzle of peanut butter.

Tips & Tricks
Use very ripe bananas (with black spots) for maximum sweetness and moisture.
If you don't have peanut butter, you can use Nutella, almond butter, or a spoon of Greek yogurt.
For an extra gooey texture, add 1 tbsp chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate before microwaving.
Start with 1 minute of microwave time. Overcooking can make the cake dry.
If you don't have oil, use melted butter or ghee for a richer flavor.
For a fluffier texture, add 1/4 tsp baking powder along with baking soda.
