ABOUT Eggless choco vanilla zebra cake with colourful pattern RECIPE

Yesterday I got a note in my kids diary that next day they have to bring some food item for sharing with their classmates. As their 9 days long vacations are going to start from this weekends. Suddenly baking a cake idea stuck to my mind but thought why not to bake some different than usual but attractive cake for kids so that they will like it even more. My kid like chocolate and vanilla flavour most. So to use it , tried my old tried and tasted recipe of zebra cake but with some more colours to make it even more presentable and eye catching and it turned out so soft, moist and yummy that no one can resist eating another serving.

Ingredients Serving: 10

3 3/4 cup all purpose flour/ chapatti flour ( I made big cake , you can make it half or 1/3 easily)
2 1/2 cup yogurt ( curd), beaten
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp Salt
2 tsp vanilla Essence
1 1/2 cup sugar ( you can add more as per taste, I kept mild)
3/4 cup oil
1/4 cup cocoa powder
Few drops of orange and blue edible colours

Instructions

First preheat the oven at 180°c.
Mix flour, baking powder and salt together, keep aside for later use.
Add baking soda to beaten yogurt and give a quick stir and keep it aside for 8-10 mins or till it become nice frothy.
Now mix vanilla essence, sugar and oil together till sugar dissolves and mixture become smooth and fluffy. Don't over mix otherwise all the bubbles will sink.
Mix dry and wet mixtures together and fold to get lumpless smooth batter .
Now divide the batter in four equal parts ,add cocoa powder to one , orange and blue colour to other two and leave fourth one as it is. Mix well but don't over do.
*Add some milk/water in Cocoa batter to get same consistency of all the batters.
In a greased baking pan , lined with butter paper , pour one big spoon of one batter and tap the pan to spread .then pour one big spoon of other batter over it and again tap the pan and do it alternatively till batter finished.
**Now using a knife or skewer make 6-8 lines on cake starting from center of cake towards edge, at equal distance and cleaning knife/skewer every time.
Then bake it for 50-55 mins. But keep an eye after 40 mins on it as baking time may vary oven to oven. I baked on convection mode for 55 mins.
Check it with knife or skewer by inserting in middle of cake ,for doneness. If knife/skewer comes out clean then cake Is done otherwise bake for some more minutes.
Let it sit for 5-10 mins then invert on wire rack and let it cool completely
