Ingredients
  

4 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

1/4 teaspoon salt

3 tablespoons canned pumpkin puree

3 tablespoons milk (you can use almond milk for a dairy-free option)

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional: whipped cream and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon for topping

Instructions
 

In a microwave-safe mug, carefully combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Use a whisk or a fork to mix these dry ingredients thoroughly until they are well blended.

    Next, incorporate the canned pumpkin puree, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract into the mug. Stir with a spoon until the batter is smooth and free of lumps, making sure to scrape down the sides of the mug to capture any dry ingredients that might stick.

      Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for about 1 minute and 30 seconds. Be mindful that microwave cooking times can vary based on wattage, so keep an eye on it as it cooks to prevent overcooking. The cake should rise and appear set in the center when done.

        After cooking, allow the mug cake to cool for about a minute. This step will make it easier to add your favorite toppings. Consider adding a luscious dollop of whipped cream on top, finished with a light sprinkle of ground cinnamon to enhance the warm, cozy flavors.

          Indulge in your fluffy pumpkin spice mug cake straight from the mug for a delightful treat!
