10 Mug Recipes for Student Life

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at SFU chapter.

There’s nothing better than a warm meal. Food has the power to bring us comfort, relieve our stress, or even boost our happiness. But it’s not always possible to enjoy these benefits, especially for students attempting to navigate busy schedules and limited budgets. Mug recipes can help with that. Whether you are living in a dorm or at home, here are 10 delicious creations you can make if you are in a hurry, in the middle of a long study session, or are simply craving a treat. All you need is your favourite mug and a microwave.

 

Blueberry Muffin in a Mug

 

A fresh recipe with bursting fruit flavours you can enjoy at any time of day.

 

Chocolate Cake in a Mug

 

My go-to recipe, a perfect blend of a brownie and rich chocolate cake.

 

Cinnamon Roll in a Mug

A bakery favourite, filled with a delicious blend of brown sugar and cinnamon.
