New Dr. Oetker’s Pud In A Mug Banana And Choc Chip Review

This is a commisioned post.

New Dr. Oetker’s Pud In A Mug Banana And Choc Chip Review.

Do you sometimes feel like me, that you would like a piece of cake but the cupboard is bare?

Midweek when it is nearly time for the “Big Shop” you will see me opening all the cupboards looking for a little bit of cake. Invariably there will be nothing. I end up eating that out of date wagon wheel I passed on 30 minutes earlier!!

As someone once said ‘I love a bit o cake’.

I am always still hungry though, so think of making a nice big cake. With kids to pick up from school, there is not enough time. Damn.

Yeah, how cool!?

Dr. Oetker has recently launched the newest flavour to its Pud in a Mug range – Banana and Choc Chip and asked me if I would like to try some out- Yes, please!

All you need to make a Pud in a Mug is a Dr. Oetker’s Pud in a Mug packet any flavour you like and about 4 tbsp of semi-skimmed milk.

These instructions are really easy to follow. Simply add 60ml of semi-skimmed milk into a microwaveable mug then empty the contents of the packet into the mug and stir. Pop into the microwave for 70seconds (800w) or check the packet for other times.

You can even jazz up your mug cake adding a few extras you may have in the fridge or cupboard for an extra special treat.

See I made mine extra healthy adding a banana.

    Ahhh the ease and simplicity of this appeals to me greatly! LOVE the idea of a mug cake. (And totally laughed out loud at 'making it healthy by adding a banana…' and squirty cream and chocolate sauce! Lol.

    Hi Claire, now this is the kind of cheat that appeals to me and I would certainly give them a go. First choice would be the rich chocolate, followed closely by the chocolate and lemon (an interesting combination).#weekendbloghopxx

    I love to make mug cakes especially since I am gluten free and don't want to buy or make an entire cake just for me. They are so fast and easy- and always can have one!

    Your pictures make it look so yummy! I have never heard of Pud in a Mug before. I like that it is simple and easy to store in the closet. This is great when you get the cake cravings suddenly. You can't go wrong with banana and chocolate either. Thank you for introducing me to Pud in a Mug! :)- Natalie A.
