Vegan Marble Cake Recipe – Soft, Indulgent, and 100% Plant-Based
This vegan marble cake combines the sweetness of vanilla with the richness of cocoa in an irresistibly soft texture. Made without eggs or dairy, it uses whole Yumgo, our high-performance plant-based whole egg alternative, perfect for both homemade and professional baking.
Step 1: Prepare the Vanilla Batter
- In a mixing bowl, combine the powdered whole Yumgo, water, sugar, vanilla extract, salt, and plant-based yogurt.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and almond flour.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture.
- Add the melted margarine and mix until smooth and homogeneous.
Step 2: Prepare the Cocoa Batter
- Repeat the same steps as for the vanilla batter, this time adding the cocoa powder to the dry ingredients mixture.
- Make sure both batters have a similar texture to achieve an even marble effect.
Step 3: Assembly and Baking
- Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F) using fan/convection heat.
- In a greased or lined loaf pan, alternate layers of vanilla and cocoa batter.
- Using a knife or skewer, swirl the batters together in spiral motions to create the marble effect.
- Bake for approximately 50 minutes. Check doneness with a knife blade or skewer — it should come out clean.
Tip for a Beautiful Marble Effect
- Make sure both batters have the same consistency so that one does not overpower the other during baking.
- If one batter is thinner, add a little flour or let it rest for a few minutes before assembling the cake.
