Tips & Tricks
Add chocolate chips, berries, or a spoon of Nutella before microwaving for extra flavor.
For a healthier version, use whole wheat flour or oat flour instead of all-purpose flour.
To make it vegan, replace yogurt with plant-based yogurt and milk with almond or soy milk.
Microwave for 60–70 seconds at 800W. Adjust time slightly based on your microwave wattage.
If the cake is too dry, reduce microwave time by 10 seconds or add 1 tsp milk next time.
