Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 tbsp milk
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp old-fashioned oats
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

Optional Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp raisins

Instructions

  1. Mix Butter and Sugar: In a microwave-safe mug, combine the melted unsalted butter and brown sugar. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  2. Add Milk and Vanilla: Stir in the milk and vanilla extract, mixing thoroughly to incorporate these wet ingredients evenly.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: Add the old-fashioned oats, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon to the mug. Stir until all the ingredients form a consistent batter.
  4. Fold in Raisins: If using, gently fold in the raisins to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
  5. Microwave Bake: Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for 40 to 60 seconds. The cookie should be set around the edges but still soft and slightly gooey in the middle.
  6. Cool Slightly: Allow the cookie to cool in the mug for 1 to 2 minutes before eating to avoid burning and to let it firm up slightly.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free option, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
  • Adjust microwave time depending on your appliance’s wattage to avoid overcooking.
  • Feel free to swap raisins with chocolate chips or nuts for variation.
  • Use a larger mug to prevent any overflow if batter puffs up slightly during cooking.
  • Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
