Marble Cake For Vegans Eggless And Dairy Free Recipes

VEGAN MARBLE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°fan/350°F/gas mark 4. Grease an approx 11.5 x 21.5 cm / 4.5 x 8.5 in loaf tin (2lb loaf tin) and line with a strip of baking parchment.
• Place the cocoa powder in a large bowl and whisk in the boiling water to make a smooth paste. Set aside.
• Place the silken tofu, milk, vanilla extract and vinegar in a blender and blitz until smooth. (I just put it all in a large jug and use a stick blender).
• Place the plain flour, cornflour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, salt and sugar in a large bowl and whisk to combine.
• Add the melted butter and oil to the dry ingredients and stir until no dry patches remain.
• Gradually whisk the wet ingredients into the dry to form a smooth batter.
• Measure 500g of the batter (just under half) into the cocoa mixture and stir until smooth.
• Spoon ⅓ of one of the colours into the prepared tin. Spoon ⅓ of the other colour on top (it doesn't have to be neat). Repeat this two more times so you end up with three layers of each colour.
• Drag a skewer or knife through the batter a couple of times to swirl the colours together. Don't go mad here or you will just end up mixing them together rather than swirling; a couple of times is enough.
• Bake the cake for 60-75 minutes until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. You can loosely cover the top with tin foil towards the end of baking if it starts to get too dark.
• Leave the cake to cool in the tin for 20 minutes then gently turn it out onto a wire rack and leave to cool completely before slicing.
