About this recipe
This GF marble cake is very soft and tasty, and it’s super easy to make. It’s a classic recipe to always have on hand, like this rich and easy Chocolate Cake.
The marbled effect is a result of the combination of the vanilla preparation with the chocolate one in the pan. Every time you slice a cake you will find a different result with the marbling.

Ingredients
The main ingredients of this recipe are:
- Flour: gluten-free all-purpose flour.
- Egg: room-temperature eggs are better.
- Cocoa: unsweetened cocoa powder.
- Oil: sunflower oil but coconut oil should work well.
- Milk: whole milk for the best flavor and consistency.

How to make GF Marble Loaf Cake
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
Lightly grease the bottom and sides of a loaf pan or line with parchment paper. I used a loaf pan 9×5-inch. Set aside.
Whisk gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
In another bowl beat the oil with the sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, and vanilla extract.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ones, along with the milk. Integrate everything.


Pour 3/4 of the preparation into the pan. Mix the cocoa with the remaining 1/4 of the preparation and integrate. Dump on the pan, over the vanilla preparation. Mix with a spoon to achieve marbling.
Cook for 50 minutes or until cooked. Keep in mind that all ovens are different. To know if it’s ready insert a toothpick into the center of the cake, it should come out clean, with no streaks of batter.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes, then lift out by the parchment paper.
Sprinkle the cake with powdered sugar.


Storing
Store the cake at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for 5 days up to a week. You can also freeze it, it’s better to slice it up before freezing so you don’t need to defrost the entire cake.
