How to make GF Vanilla Chocolate Marble Cake

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).

Lightly grease the bottom and sides of a 9×5-inch loaf pan, or similar, or line with parchment paper. 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 into 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 with the parchment paper.

Sprinkle the cake with powdered sugar.

Storing

Store the cake covered at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or 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.

Variations

  • Frosting: top the cake with chocolate ganache or cream cheese frosting and add richness.
  • Cupcakes: Divide the batter into individual muffin pans with liners for birthday parties or celebrations.
  • Chocolate chips: Add chocolate chips for a super chocolatey version.
