This Peanut Butter and Jelly Mug Cake is made in less than 2 minutes with only a few ingredients! Now you can enjoy have pancakes on a busy morning too!
Making food in a mug is one of my most favorite ways to prepare food, because let’s be honest, when you’re hungry, you don’t wanna wait 10980 minutes for it to cook! Who else agree’s with me?
I’ve known all too well the struggle of wanting a nice home-cooked breakfast on a busy morning but not being able to have it because the lack of time and that, my friends, is a sucky feeling.
My obsession with food in a mug has taken me all the way to one of my most favorite Sunday morning breakfasts ever, pancakes. Yes pancakes in a mug, and no, your not dreaming either!
All you need is your favorite complete pancake mix that only requires water or milk (I used Kodiak Cakes protein pancake mix but I know Bob’s Red Mill has a GF mix as well) and some peanut butter and jelly and you’ve got a delicious pancake made in less than 2 minutes, what could be better?
Oh, and don’t forget to add the Peanut Butter Maple Drizzle on top, it’s magical.
Enjoy this PB and J Pancake Mug Cake for the most perfect breakfast to start your day!

I’ll admit, I don’t make pancakes very often, mostly because they are a process. This perfectly portioned little beauty solves that problem! And I love the pb&j going on, yum!

Literally just used my abouttime protein pancake mix the other night, but was too lazy to wait and make the pancakes so did almost this exact thing! But mine didn’t look nearly as good 😛 And PB&J…how can you go wrong with that?!

This is so great! I love that Kodiak Cakes mix, and baked pancakes are one of my favorite prep-ahead breakfasts because they don’t require flipping. This is so smart…and even faster than the baked version! YUM!
