Instructions

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a microwave safe coffee mug, mix together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until combined.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate microwave safe container, melt the coconut oil in the microwave for about 30 seconds. Stir in the milk and vanilla extract.
Combine: Add the wet ingredients to the mug with the dry ingredients and stir until smooth.
Add Blueberries: Gently fold in the blueberries.
Microwave: Microwave the mug muffin for 1 minute 30 seconds to 2 minutes, until cooked through. The top may appear slightly wet in the center.
Serve: Let sit for a few seconds, then enjoy directly from the mug.

Notes

Doneness Check: A slightly wet spot in the center is normal and will disappear within seconds. Overcooking can cause a rubbery texture.
Berry Tip: Add blueberries last to help prevent them from sinking during cooking.
Texture Boost: For a richer flavor and texture, add 1 tablespoon dry cheesecake pudding mix or a few white chocolate chips to the batter.
