Decoration Tips:
To elevate your Ultimate Fluffy Oat & Coconut Microwave Cake, consider topping it with a dollop of Greek yogurt mixed with a touch of vanilla extract or honey for added sweetness. Fresh berries, such as strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries, not only add a pop of color but also a burst of natural sweetness and antioxidants. A sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes or a dash of cinnamon can enhance the cake's flavor profile, while a few dark chocolate chips melted on top can add a decadent touch without compromising the healthiness of your treat.
