Beyond SCD Recipe: Easy Grain-Free Mug Brownie

This is a quick and easy grain-free mug brownie recipe that only takes a few mintues to make. I love making mug cakes, not only because they are fast, but a lot of times I like to have a single serving. It’s a good way to not overindulge in heavieer nut-flour sweets.

Like my Brownie Bites recipe, the only non-SCD ingredient is unsweetened cocoa powder. Having a single serving is also a good way to satisfy a chocolate craving with just a small amount. I like to keep my non-SCD foods limited.


For this recipe I primarily use a mashed ripe banana to sweeten it with just a little bit of honey. As noted in the recipe, you can use a little more honey instead of the banana if you like. I like to cut back on the amount of honey I use so I use bananas whenever it fits.

Join in the dicussion! I started a new Facebook Group – Happy Gut For Life – Beyond SCD Discussion Group where we can talk about any SCD subjects including introducing new foods that may be outside the diet. Come check it out – I’ll be disussing my own successes and failures on this topic and it’s a great place to connect with others who are exploring SCD and beyond SCD foods.
