I came across a recipe for marble pound cake. It had been modified from Martha Stewart recipe. Then I modified it to be a smaller cake, a bit more chocolately, and gluten free. Actually, marble pound cake is one of the few things I like from Starbuck's. I have been thinking for years that I wanted to try a recipe. I decided that it was time. So I went there.
This was actually quite good. Better then Starbuck's.
marble pound cake
Note: To use wheat flour, use 100 grams all purpose flour.
100 grams almond flour
50 grams rice flour
50 grams arrowroot flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
8 ounce (1/2 cup) butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
30 grams cocoa
2 tablespoons water
Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Butter a small loaf pan.
Cream the butter and sugar together. Mix in the eggs, vanilla, and salt. Mix in the gluten free flour. Pour half the batter into the loaf pan.
Mix the cocoa and water together. Make sure there are no lumps. Mix into the batter not in the pan. Pour the rest of the batter into the loaf pan. Draw a knife through to marble the batter.
Bake 1 hour or until a knife inserted in to it comes out clean.
These little pieces are lovely with a cup of tea.
