Chocolate Applesauce Bowl Cake

Ingredients

• 100 g Unsweetened applesauce (The author uses applesauce with no added sugar.)
• 1 Egg
• 30 g Oat flour (The author makes it by blending rolled oats.)
• 15 g Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 40 g Skyr
• 0.5 tsp Baking powder
• Vanilla (Add to taste; the source does not specify an amount.)
• Sweetener (Optional, if desired; amount not specified.)
• Chocolate chips (A few, as desired.)
• 1 square Chocolate (For serving; melt over the bowl cake.)
• Peanut butter (For serving; amount not specified.)
• Red berries (A handful, for serving; amount not specified.)

Steps

1. 1

   In a mixing bowl, combine the applesauce and egg, stirring until blended.

2. 2

   Add the oat flour, cocoa powder, skyr, vanilla, chocolate chips, and baking powder. Add optional sweetener if desired, then mix until the batter is homogeneous.

3. 3

   Pour the batter into a microwave-safe bowl approximately 10 cm in diameter. Do not use a much wider bowl, or the bowl cake may turn out flat.

4. 4

   Microwave for approximately 3 minutes. Adjust the cooking time slightly for your appliance; the center should remain very soft and moist.

5. 5

   Let the bowl cake rest for 1 minute before unmolding it by turning it onto a plate, or eat it directly from the bowl.

6. 6

   To serve, place the chocolate square on top and let it melt. Add peanut butter and a handful of red berries if desired.

Notes

The source does not specify the microwave power. A comment mentions that banana can be used instead of applesauce, but this is not part of the primary recipe. The author recommends cooking it immediately so it is warm and soft.
