Looking for a healthy dessert that can be made in minutes? Look no further. This high protein vanilla mug cake is a guilt-free way to satisfy your sweet tooth. It is delicious, packed with protein, and does not require added sugar. Plus, it can be made in a single bowl, which means easy clean-up. As someone who makes mug cakes often, my one piece of advice is to use a deep mug so that the cake does not overflow while cooking.
This recipe was made with drink wholesome vanilla protein powder, which is made with egg whites. If you are vegan, you can use our vegan vanilla protein powder, which is made with chickpeas. If you do so, substitute the egg for a banana.

Why drink wholesome?
Again, this recipe was made with drink wholesome vanilla protein powder. It is perfect for baking. Most protein powders are not good for baking because they are made with protein concentrates and isolates, foods stripped of everything but the protein.
Unlike real foods, protein concentrates and isolates are missing the nutrients that make food taste good. In other words, they turn delicious recipes into hockey pucks. With enough trial and error, you can make these protein powders work, but how many rock-hard mug cakes are you willing to make?
Another reason why drink wholesome is perfect for baking is that it is sweetened with monk fruit. Monk fruit, also known as lo han guo, is a small, melon-like round fruit native to Southeast Asia. Monk fruit sweetener is made by removing the seeds and skin, crushing the fruit, and collecting the juice, which is then dried into a powder.
We use monk fruit sweetener because it has a sweetness similar to that of sugar. Artificial sweeteners and stevia, on the other hand, are either way too sweet, or have a bitter aftertaste. Order samples to experience the monk fruit sweetness for yourself.
Now without further ado, here is the best vanilla protein powder mug cake recipe.
