Epic Vegan Lava Mug Cake

Delicious chocolate mug cakes with melting chocolate in the middle.

Ingredients for the molten lava:

• 115 g of vegan chocolate
• 115 ml of coconut milk

Ingredients for the cake batter:

• 225 g of all-purpose flour
• 60 g of sugar
• 3 tablespoons of cacao powder
• ½ teaspoon of baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon of baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon of sea salt
• 60 ml of apple sauce
• 115 ml of coconut milk
• 50 ml of canola oil
• ½ teaspoon of apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Preparation:

1. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler.
   
   Slowly add 115 ml of warm coconut milk.
   
   Mix it together until getting a smooth texture.
   
   Let it cool down and place it in a freezer for 2 hours.
2. Combine dry ingredients in a bowl; flour, sugar, cacao powder, baking powder, baking soda and sea salt.
   
   Mix it well.
   
3. Grate or blend an apple to get an apple sauce.
   In a small pot, combine wet ingredients; apple sauce, coconut milk, canola oil, apple cider vinegar and vanilla extract.
   
4. Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix it slowly with a spoon or electric mixer.
   
   Mix until all well combined, but don't overmix as the batter will get tough.
   
5. Pour it in greased cups a bit more than half a cup.
   With a spoon, scoop out a tablespoon of frozen chocolate molten and put it in a mug on top of cake batter.
   
   Cover it with more cake batter, but don't completely fill up the mug with it, allowing the cake to have space to rise.
   
6. Place them in a preheated oven at 180°C for 20-25 minutes.
   
7. If using small cups or mugs, you can try flipping it out on a plate.
   Decorate it with berries.
