Grain Free 1 Cup Cake

I Looooove grain free recipes but what I love more is when they are simple and easy to make!!
I'm a huge fan of the 1 cup recipes because you put all the ingredients into a cup, mix it well and stick it into the microwave.

I usually make a nice chocolate one but I don't always have bananas so today I tried a vanilla one. It spelt amazing...I'm not sure if it is the coconut flour that smells so good or the vanilla essence but I can for sure do with the kitchen smelling like that everyday!!

They came out perfect and aren't a hassle to make at all!!

The Recipe is:

1 Tbs Coconut Flour
1/4 Tsp Baking Powder
a pinch of salt
1 Tbs Honey
1 Egg
1 Tbs Butter
1/2 Tsp Vanilla Essence

Mix it all together in the cup...really mix nice and hard until it is smooth and creamy and pop into the microwave for 1min 45 seconds.

I kept mine in the cup but it sits nice and loose in the cup so you can pop it out into a plate and decorate or you can decorate it inside the cup.

I drizzled some cream over mine just for some extra taste and it was HEAVEN!!! It tasted like it was made in some Masterchef episode!! It isn't dry at all and you would never tell that there is no wheat flour inside!!

You for sure need to try this out!!
