- Lightly grease a mug, and whisk together the dry ingredients. Add in the wet, and mix until fully combined. Use a spoon to scrape the sides to avoid any dry spots, and use a fork to whisk out the clumps
- Microwave for about 1 minute (± 15 seconds), stirring every 20-30 seconds. Make sure that it doesn't cook over, and that it isn't overcooked and dry. A spoon should still be slightly moist when mixed, but not raw or dry. Let rest for a minute before eating

- Optionally toppings include the following
- 1 tsp (6 g) Natural peanut butter
- 1 tsp, chopped (5 g) Almonds
- 1 tsp (5 g) Mini chocolate chips
- 1 tsp (7 g) Honey
