For a richer flavor, add a tiny pat of butter (about 1/4 teaspoon) to the mug before cooking. Adjust the sugar to your liking, depending on the tartness of your rhubarb. Feel free to add a sprinkle of chopped nuts or a few chocolate chips for added texture and flavor.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
2 mins
In a large, microwave-safe mug, whisk together the egg, flour, sugar, milk, rhubarb, and cinnamon until well combined. Ensure there are no lumps. (Prep time: ~2 minutes)
02
Step
2 hrs
Microwave on high for approximately 3 minutes, or until the cake has risen above the top of the mug and appears set. Cooking times may vary depending on your microwave's wattage, so start with 2 minutes and add time in 30-second increments if needed. (Cook time: ~3 minutes)
03
Step
1 mins
Allow the cake to cool in the mug for 1 minute before serving. This allows the cake to set slightly and prevents burning your mouth. (Cooling time: ~1 minute)
