Step 1
Peel banana and slice into a microwave-safe mug. Mash with a fork until mostly smooth.
Step 2
Add flour, cocoa powder, sugar, egg, and melted butter. Stir until just combined; batter will be thick.
Step 3
Microwave on high for 90 seconds. Check with a toothpick—it should come out with moist crumbs, not wet.
Step 4
Let cool 1 minute. Eat from the mug with a spoon, or turn out onto a plate.
