Instructions
Prepare Pan
- Grease a 10-inch Bundt pan with butter or non-stick spray. Dust with gluten-free flour. Set aside to prevent sticking.
Mix Dry Ingredients
- In a medium bowl, whisk gluten-free flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to remove lumps.
Cream Butter and Sugar
- In a large bowl, beat softened butter and sugar until fluffy. This creates a light, airy base for the cake.
Add Eggs and Vanilla
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing well. Stir in vanilla extract until the batter is smooth and creamy.
Combine Batter
- Alternate adding dry ingredients and milk to the batter, starting and ending with dry ingredients. Stir gently to avoid overmixing.
Prepare Chocolate Batter
- Mix cocoa powder with hot water until smooth. Take about 1 cup of vanilla batter and fold in cocoa mixture for chocolate portion.
Layer Batters
- Layer batters in the Bundt pan. Pour half vanilla, spoon chocolate, then remaining vanilla. Swirl gently with a knife to create marble effect.
Bake Cake
- Bake at 350°F for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cake should rise evenly and smell fragrant.
Cool Cake
- Cool the cake in pan for 10 minutes. Invert onto a cooling rack. Let it cool completely before slicing.
Add Toppings
- Optional: Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle chocolate glaze. Serve with berries or whipped cream if desired.
