Oils to use in keto mug cakes

Coconut oil, melted and cooled

Avocado oil

Olive oil (adds a bit of additional flavor)

Ghee, melted and cooled

Butter, melted and cooled

I haven't tried other oils in this low carb mug cake recipe, but I would imagine any kind would work.

You can use fresh or canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling) in this keto pumpkin mug cake recipe.

Just note that fresh cooked and pureed pumpkin tend to have more water in it. It shouldn't impact the recipe, but be aware of it.

When you measure your almond flour and coconut flour, make sure to level the tablespoon so extra flour doesn't get into the batter and cause it to be dry.

Double check the expiration dates on the almond flour and coconut flour before making this low carb pumpkin mug cake.

Both flours can go rancid and cause baked goods to dry out or to have a funny taste to them.
