Pancake mix mug cake

NOTE: This makes a substantial cake that is plenty for one person's breakfast. For a shareable cake, double the ingredients, use a four-cup pitcher, and increase the microwave time to 3 minutes 15 seconds.

NOTE: For a vegan cake, omit the egg or replace with applesauce.

3/8 cup pancake mix (regular or gluten-free)
1–1.5 Tbsp sugar or maple sugar if there's no sugar in the mix, 0–0.5 Tbsp if there is
3 Tbsp oil
4 Tbsp milk (dairy or unsweetened non-dairy)
1 large egg
0.5 tsp vanilla
12 blueberries or 1 Tbsp raspberry jam

In a two-cup Pyrex pitcher, mix the pancake mix and sugar with a wooden spoon. Add the oil, milk, egg, and vanilla, and beat well with the spoon. Mix in blueberries, or drop jam into the center of the batter. Microwave for 2 minutes or until fully cooked.

I tried the half-size in the largest mug I have, which is pretty darn large.

It was not big enough.

On the other hand, I didn't exactly follow the recipe. I have no oil, so I omitted the oil but kept the egg in, instead.
