How to get the perfect result when you make mug recipes?

Follow the exact ingredients int the recipe.
First add the ingredients to a separate small bowl , mix till you get incorporated dough.
Before transferring the dough to the mug or ramekins, slightly use coconut oil or oil spray and brush/oil.
Don’t let the cake over cook, my microwave is 1200 W and it takes 1 minute cooking time, however, if you are using less power microwave them it might take extra 50 seconds, not more than that.
For the best baking result in microwave place the mug in the centre.

Can I sub the oat flour with normal flour?

You can do that, only pay attention, adding raw flour and eating it is not that healthy, Place the flour on a cookie sheet and place in the oven at 300 °F/ 148°C degrees for 5 minutes. Stir with a fork and continue.Make sure to keep the flour stirred and do not allow it to burn. Always sift the cooled flour as it has a tendency to form little clumps during the toasting process.

Can I bake instead of using in microwave?

Yes. 180°C/160°C (356°F) fan preheated oven for 15 minutes.
