Equipment

  • Hand mixer
  • 1 Loaf pan
  • 1 Medium bowl
  • 1 large bowl
  • 1 Small bowl

Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cup Plain flour (all-purpose flour)
  • 1 1/2 tsp Baking powder
  • 1 Sachet Vanilla sugar (or vanilla extract - 1 tsp)
  • 1/2 tsp Sea salt/Himalayan salt
  • 3 Eggs (room temperature)
  • 1/2 cup Milk
  • 1/2 cup Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/4 cup 100% natural sugar 100% natural erythritol

Chocolate Mix

  • 2 1/2-3 tbsp Unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp Milk

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and prepare a loaf pan by lining it with a baking sheet or greasing it to prevent sticking.
  • In a medium bowl, combine flour, salt, and baking powder, then set aside.
  • In a larger bowl, mix eggs, sugar, and olive oil until it turns creamy and slightly fluffy, for about 2-4 minutes.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, along with the milk (1/2 cup). Mix until well combined, avoiding overmixing.
  • Take a cup of the batter and add to a small bowl. Then mix in cocoa powder and milk (1 tbsp) until it becomes chocolatey.
  • Pour the vanilla batter into the pan (split in two - three) and add the chocolate batter in dollops, and keep repeating the process. Use a skewer to create a marbled swirl effect.
