Say hi to your new favorite fall dessert! This pumpkin chocolate chip mug cake is gluten free, dairy free, nut free, and takes 5 minutes to make! Yes please!
I couldn’t wait to share this one the minute I took a bite! It’s soo fluffy and has that perfect fall flavor. I’m obsessed with this one!
The perfect cozy hug in a mug. When you need a fall treat, but don’t feel like waiting or spending too much time in the kitchen. You’ll have this dessert ready in 5 minutes!
Because it gets so fluffy, it lasts longer than your average mug cake- more time to enjoy it! You could even cut this in half after cooking and serve it for 2 if you want a smaller treat!
Just don’t skip the cream cheese glaze 😉 It’s my favorite part!
To keep this recipe nut free and gluten free, I used a gluten free all purpose flour mix. I have not tested this with almond flour, coconut flour, etc., so I’m not sure what the results will be if you experiment a bit!
For the same texture as mine, I recommend sticking with an all purpose flour (you can use regular flour of course if you don’t need gluten free!)
You guys absolutely need to make this pumpkin chocolate chip mug cake! It’s a little slice of heaven and could not be easier to make. I’ll be making this all fall long 😉 Can’t wait to hear if you give this one a try!

A lovely springy and moist cake texture with a tasty glaze!
I would like more pumpkin flavor and a bit more glaze to account for the surprising volume and density of the cake. I also added more maple into the cake as there was so little sugar even with the chocolate. Wondering if adding some coconut sugar would help for my sweetness preference
so so good!! i needed a quick breakfast fix this morning then luckily i saw this on my feed. i immediatly sprinted to my kitchen and made this beauty. TRULY A GAME CHANGER ???????? going to be a staple in my house from now on. thank you so much mia! your recipes never disappoints
OMG. I was having a terrible day because of my period and desperately needed dessert. So glad I bookmarked this recipe because it was amazing! The texture came out as promised. I haven’t been able to find canned pumpkin at stores around me, only pumpkin pie filling, so mine came out a little sweeter (not complaining!). 10/10 will make again 🙂
Holy NUTS this is bonkers!!!! I added some extra maple syrup and topped it with chocolate ice cream for a late night dessert and i am FLOORED. best recipe ever!!!
