vegan baking: Marmorkuchen

rainy summer days were invented for baking, i swear.

i decided to finally make a Marmorkuchen (marble cake), an old childhood favourite of mine.

the recipe was found on the interwebs and was easy enough, eventhough i almost sliced the top of a finger off when mixing the margarine with the sugar. don’t ask, it’s a long embarrassing story, and nothing a band aid couldn’t fix happened.

WHAT

200 g margarine

200 g sugar

1 pack vanilla sugar

3 tablespoons soy flour

400 g flour

1 pack baking powder

1/2 - 1 cup water

2 tablespoons cacao

HOW

mix together margarine, sugar and vanilla sugar

mix in soy flour, flour, baking powder and water and stir well.

put 2/3 of the batter into a well greased pan

add cacao to rest of the batter, then add on top of light batter and mix in dark batter w/ a fork.

bake at 175 Celsius for 50-60 minutes. pre-heat the oven, of course!

let the cake fully cool off before you cut it, ok? enjoy with a cup of coffee.
