Step-by-step recipes for a cupcake in a mug in the microwave

I learned that portioned muffins can be cooked in the microwave about 3 years ago. My husband cannot be called a sweet tooth, but from time to time he wants to pamper himself with a delicious dessert. Since he considers most of what I cook to be too high in calories, he got the idea to look for lighter options on the Internet. It was then that he discovered a small video, which told how to bake a muffin from a protein shake powder and vegetable oil with a sugar substitute. Despite my doubts, the result was excellent. I began to look for similar options and found a huge number of ways to bake a cupcake in a mug in the microwave. I am sharing with you the best of them.
