Easy vegan Marble Bundt Cake<\/strong> with a zesty kick for a delightful chocolate and orange flavour combo, simply delicious! This recipe results in a moist marble cake that looks pretty amazing baked in a bundt pan. Top with the glazing of your choice for variation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vanilla and chocolate more often make a traditional marble cake, where vanilla and chocolate batter are swirled together and baked in a loaf pan, creating intricate marble-like effects inside the cake. But I think chocolate and orange make a divine flavour combination, would you agree?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, I thought I\u2019d give the traditional version a little spin. This vegan cake is also relatively low in fat and I\u2019ve omitted the glazing because then, I can enjoy more of it\u2060\u2014for breakfast, ahem! Just plain, a slice serving is only 176 calories! But feel free to add chocolate or orange glazing, or both if you like!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I tend to make marble cakes when I\u2019m torn between baking a luscious chocolate gateau or opting for a simple yet delicious vanilla loaf of joy. Marble cake brings the best of both and I am always excited when slicing the cake, in anticipation as to what pattern will be revealed. In this particular rendition, the citrus and cocoa combo works exquisitely well, creating a bundt cake that is soft and buttery\u2060\u2014a real keeper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s quick to make too for a cake that\u2019s really quite impressive. As tempting as the alluring chocolatey orange scent coming from this cake is, I recommend that you wait until the cake has cooled completely or sufficiently before slicing into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve based this cake on my Apple and Orange Cake recipe<\/a> that a lot of you have loved so much! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marble Bundt Cake<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I love how bundt pans instantly add so much interest to any plain cake. With the bundt pan, all you have to do is drop in the batter alternatively all around the ring. Then a gentle tap will settle the layers revealing a concentric upward swirl pattern as the cake bakes.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For glazing, you could go with melted chocolate or icing sugar mixed with a little orange juice, or both!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to make Orange and Chocolate Marble Bundt Cake<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Because bundt pans can\u2019t be lined with parchment paper, it\u2019s important to generously grease then flour it lightly, even for non-stick pans. It may take a little practice to get an even flouring especially around the inner part of the ring but just do your best. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"How <\/picture><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Then tap the excess flour out over the sink. I strongly suggest that you don\u2019t skip the greasing and flouring step to ensure that the cake will not stick to the pan after baking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many marble cake recipes instruct to mix all the batter in one bowl then divide it to add the cocoa to one half. But for this chocolate and orange combination, we need each batter to be mixed separately from the start since we are adding orange juice to the orange batter only. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make sure to mix the two batters relatively quickly or side by side, so that one batter isn\u2019t left on the counter for too long before being poured into the pan. Else, the baking soda with start to react with the acidic ingredients prior to baking, and this may result in a flat cake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once each batter is mixed, pour the batter a little at a time, alternating with the other flavour in a circular pattern around the pan until all the batter is used up. Then tap the pan gently to level out the batter and remove any trapped air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note: The batter from the recipe will be less runny than what you see in the pictures below. Please don’t adjust the batter to get it to be like in the pictures. I took the pictures during one of the many tests that I’ve made for this cake and I’ve adjusted the quantities in the recipe to get the optimum texture for this cake. Please follow the recipe. The batter will be thicker but you will get the same kind of marble effect.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bake in a preheated oven at 200 C \/ 400 F for the first 10 minutes. Then lower the temperature to 180 C \/ 350 F and continue to bake for another 30 – 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean, about 40 – 45 minutes total. Let cool for 10 minutes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, flip on a plate or wire rack to unmould the cake. Let cool completely before slicing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
