Marbled Green Tea Cake

I found this recipe a few years ago, but can't remember where. I haven't had a chance to try it yet, but i thought it sounded interesting!!

Preheat oven to 375f.

Line 2 mini loaf pans or 1 standard loaf pan with parchment paper and / or coating it with non-stick spray.

Sift together flour , baking powder and salt.

In a large bowl , combine eggs and sugar and mix until well incorporated.

Add the flour mixture and stir to combine.

Add vanilla and yogurt and mix well.

Gradually add the melted butter and continue to blend until the cake batter is smooth.

In a separate bowl , mix the powdered green tea and about a teaspoon of lukewarm water into a paste.

If desired , add a tablespoon of cream and continue mixing this into a paste.

Add about 1 / 4 to 1 / 3 of the cake batter to the green tea mixture.

Blend until it is a solid green color.

Add the green tea batter to the plain batter with a rubber spatula.

Make 1 or 2 large swirls with the rubber spatula , being careful not to over-do it.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan , and bake for about 40 minutes.

Cake will be done when it is slightly springy in the mid.
