Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Roll in a Mug
  1. Combine powdered sugar with a splash of water or dairy-free milk. Stir until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
  2. Lightly grease a microwave-safe mug with oil, covering bottom and sides, avoiding excess.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Gradually stir in water until a slightly tacky dough forms.
  5. Transfer dough to a floured surface, roll out, sprinkle with cinnamon and brown sugar, then roll it up tightly.
  6. Place the rolled dough into the greased mug, adding ½ teaspoon of water. Microwave for about 50 seconds.
  7. Check doneness with a toothpick; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Let cool slightly, then drizzle prepared icing over the top. Enjoy warm!
