    Prep & Bake Time

    Prep time: 15 minutes

    Bake time: 55 minutes

    Total time: 70 minutes

    Servings: 10 slices

    Ingredients

    • 180 g soy milk
    • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
    • 100 g coconut sugar
    • 240 g unsweetened applesauce
    • 300 g flour (regular or gluten-free)
    • 15 g baking powder
    • 100 g neutral vegetable oil
    • 1 pinch of salt
    • 15 g unsweetened cocoa powder
    • 1 tbsp organic ceremonial matcha

    Step-by-Step Instructions

    1. Make the “vegan buttermilk”: Mix the soy milk with the apple cider vinegar. Let it rest for 5 minutes to thicken slightly — this helps create a softer crumb.
    2. Prepare the batter: Add the coconut sugar and applesauce to the mixture. Sift in the flour and baking powder, then add the oil and salt. Stir until you get a smooth, even batter.
    3. Split the batter: Divide it evenly into two bowls: add cocoa to one, matcha to the other.
    4. Create the marble effect: In an oiled loaf tin, alternate layers of cocoa and matcha batter. Run a knife through in a zigzag motion for a pretty marbled look.
    5. Bake: Bake at 180°C for 55 minutes. Let it cool slightly before removing from the tin.

    Tips & Variations

    Add a handful of dark chocolate chips to the cocoa layer for extra indulgence. You can also fold in chopped walnuts or hazelnuts for a crunchy version. This loaf keeps beautifully for up to 4 days in an airtight container, or you can freeze it in slices for a quick snack.

    Nutrition Highlights

    Thanks to applesauce and plant-based milk, this loaf is naturally rich in fibre and low in saturated fat. Matcha brings antioxidant catechins and a calm, steady lift, while cocoa contributes magnesium and a gentle natural pick-me-up.

    When to Enjoy It

    This marble loaf is perfect for a tea-time break, a cosy brunch, or as a dessert after a light meal. It’s also a great pre-workout snack when you want long-lasting energy.

    Diet-Friendly

    This recipe is ideal for vegan diets, and it can easily be made gluten-free by using a dedicated gluten-free baking flour blend. It also has a moderate glycaemic impact thanks to coconut sugar and applesauce.

    FAQ: Vegan Matcha Marble Loaf

    Can I replace soy milk?

    Yes — oat or almond milk works well, but soy milk often gives the softest texture thanks to its higher protein content.

    Can I freeze this loaf cake?

    Absolutely. Freeze it in slices, then let it thaw at room temperature before serving.

    How do I get a nice marble effect?

    Alternate layers, then swirl a knife through in a zigzag motion before baking to create marbled patterns.

    Can I make this recipe gluten-free?

    Yes — simply use a gluten-free flour blend made for baking.

    Which matcha is best for baking?

    Our organic ceremonial matcha offers a smooth taste and a vibrant colour that works beautifully in this kind of recipe.
