Before you starts, make sure ALL the ingredients including, oil, cream, eggs, flours are at room temperature to avoid lumps. The best is to take them out of the fridge 3 hours before you starts the recipe

Preheat oven to 350F (180C). Cover a loaf pan (9 inches x 5 inches) with parchment paper. Oil the paper if yours tend to stick to food. Set aside.

Vanilla cake layer

4
In a medium mixing bowl, lightly whisk eggs with sugar-free crystal sweetener, vanilla and coconut cream.
-
5
Stir in coconut oil (at room temperature! hot melted coconut oil will cook your eggs you don't want this to happen), baking powder, coconut flour and almond flour.

Whisk quickly to evenly combine. The vanilla cake batter is thick but spread easily, shiny, with no lumps. If there lumps (it shouldn't have some if you used ingredients at same temperature). If so, use an electric beater, beat few seconds to get a smooth batter.

11
Alternate dollops of vanilla cake batter with chocolate cake batter until no more left. I highly recommend watching my recipe video tutorial below to see how to make marble cake steps by steps.

When no more batter left, use a knife to swirl the top of the batter. Insert the knife into the loaf and gently swirl into the batter, once or 2 times, to create a marble swirl effect.

Bake at 180C (350F) for 50-65 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the middle of the loaf come out clean with few to no crumbs on it.

Cool marble cake for at least 4 hours, or overnight, on a cooling rack, before slicing. Don't slice too early of the cake will crumble appart. You should be able to slice 14 slices in this loaf.
