Ingredients
  

  • For the Cake:
  • 9 tbsp self-rising flour
  • ¾ tsp cinnamon
  • tbsp granulated sugar
  • tsp salt
  • 5 tbsp water divided
  • Cooking spray
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • For the Frosting:
  • 3 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp soy milk
  • ¼ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Frosting:
  • Gradually add soy milk and vanilla extract to the powdered sugar, stirring continuously until the mixture is smooth. Set it aside.
  • Prepare the Mug:
  • Lightly grease a mug with cooking spray. Set it aside.
  • Make the Dough:
  • In a bowl, combine flour, salt, and vanilla extract. Gradually add 4 tbsp of water to the flour mixture until you form a soft dough. Adjust flour or water to get the ideal consistency.
  • Roll the Dough:
  • Dust a work surface with a bit of flour. Roll the dough out into a 1cm thick long strip that is about 4 inches in width.
  • Add the Filling:
  • Sprinkle sugar and cinnamon over the dough as you fold it into a roll. Lift the dough carefully and place it in the lightly greased mug.
  • Assemble and Cook:
  • Scatter the remaining sugar and cinnamon onto the dough. Pour in ½ tsp of water, then microwave it for about 1 minute and 10 seconds.
  • Serve:
  • You can either turn the cinnamon roll onto a plate before pouring in the frosting or pour the frosting straight into the mug and enjoy it as you would any mug cake.
