Vegetarian Food: Oats & Dates Microwave Cupcake

Oats & Dates Microwave Cupcake (Eggless, No Stove, One Bowl Recipe)

Ingredients –

Oats – 2 tbsp

Almonds – 4–5

Wheat flour - 1 tsp

Mixed nuts and seeds – 2 tbsp

Almond butter / olive oil / butter / ghee – 1 tbsp

Dates (seedless) – 3 big

Salt – 1 pinch

Sugar – 1 tsp or dark chocolate – 2–3 pieces

Cocoa powder – 1 tsp

Baking powder – ½ tsp

Milk or water – as required

Optional – Chocolate chips, fresh fruits, whipped cream for topping

Process –

Blend oats, almonds, nuts, seeds, cocoa powder, salt, and sugar (or chocolate) together into a fine powder. Store this dry mix in the fridge for up to a month for quick use.

When ready to make the cupcake, dice the dates and warm them with ghee (or butter) in the microwave for about 1 minute until soft and easy to mash. Mix in 4–5 tbsp of the prepared dry powder. Add milk or water gradually to make a smooth batter. Stir in baking powder.

Pour the batter into a microwave-safe bowl, filling only 2/3 full. Microwave for 2½–3 minutes.

Serve warm with chocolate chips, cream, or fresh fruits on top.

Tips-

- You can add all dry and wet ingredients directly into the mixer to make a smooth batter and pour it straight into the microwave-safe bowl — saves time and reduces dishes.

- You can pre-make the dry powder mix (oats, nuts, seeds, sugar, cocoa) and store in the fridge for over a month — just add dates and ghee when ready to make the cupcake.
