Zebra cake can only be described as a "fun cake". Kids love to make it and eat it and it is also delicious.
Getting started
Preheat oven to 180C and grease cake pan.
Vanilla Batter

In another medium bowl combine the eggs, vanilla, syrup and coconut milk.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix well.
Slowly pour in the coconut oil and mix until all lumps have disappeared.

Combining
- Pour 1/4 cup of the vanilla cake batter into the very centre of the prepared cake pan.
Pour 1/4 cup of the chocolate cake batter slowly into the very centre of the circle of vanilla.
Repeat this process, slowly pouring alternating 1/4 cups of each batter into the very centre of the pan until you’ve used up all of the batter.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden on the top and fully set.
