This may be the streusel talking, but I am totally in love with this mug cake.
I’ve been trying to make mug cakes outside of the traditional ones. So the last few weeks I worked on this blueberry muffin one. And no muffin is complete without streusel.
I love blueberry muffins. And I love that now I can make myself a single serving one for breakfast instead of making a dozen of them and then trying to eat a dozen of them in 2-3 days.
This single serving muffin is easy and fast and satisfies my muffin cravings. And the streusel is so good.

It’s very yummy however I added a few more blueberries and the streusel topping is also good but next time I would only use half since it was a bit too much for my taste.
Thanks for sharing your feedback!
This may be the best thing I’ve ever eaten from a microwave, and I am an avid microwave baker! ?
Aww, I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much!
Has this been tried with dried blueberries?
We haven’t tried it but they should work. The only thing to keep in mind is that they won’t be juicy like fresh blueberries – they will be chewier like raisins.
