4 tablespoons all-purpose flour

👩🍳 Step-by-Step Method
1️⃣ Prepare the Apple
Peel (optional) and finely chop the apple into very small pieces.
Smaller pieces cook faster and make the cake softer.
2️⃣ Mix Wet Ingredients
In a microwave-safe mug or bowl, add:
Egg
Sugar
Milk
Oil or melted butter
Vanilla essence
Whisk well until smooth.
3️⃣ Add Dry Ingredients
Add flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
Mix gently until just combined.
👉 Do not overmix (it can make the cake dense).
4️⃣ Add Apples
Fold in the chopped apples evenly.
5️⃣ Microwave
Microwave on high power for 2½ to 3 minutes.
Insert a toothpick in the center — if it comes out clean, it’s ready.
If slightly wet, microwave for another 20–30 seconds.
6️⃣ Rest & Serve
Let it cool for 1 minute.
Enjoy warm! You can top it with:
Powdered sugar
Honey
Caramel sauce
A scoop of vanilla ice cream

💡 Tips for Best Results
Use sweet apples for better flavor.
Cut apples very small so they cook fully.
Use a large mug — the cake rises while cooking.
Do not overcook, or it may turn rubbery.
