Instructions

Choose a microwave-safe mug and add the Greek yogurt, sugar, oil, and vanilla.
Stir gently until smooth and creamy.
Add the flour, baking powder, and salt, then mix just until combined.
Microwave on high for 60–90 seconds until set.
Let rest for one minute before enjoying.

Notes

Use full-fat Greek yogurt for the softest texture. Add chocolate chips, berries, or a spoon of jam for variation. Let the cake rest before eating so it stays moist.
