Preheat oven to 350 degrees (convection preferred if possible).
Set up two stainless steel bowls.
Bowl one:
Mix:
- 3/4 cup turbinado sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup unsweetened rice milk
- 1 tablespoon plain white vinegar
- ¼ cup olive oil
Whisk until smooth.
Add:
- 1 ¼ cup sorghum flour
- ½ teaspoon xanthan gum
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ¾ teaspoon baking powder
Mix until smooth.
Pour into the bottom of a 9 x 12 baking pan.
Bowl two:
Mix:
- 3/4 cup turbinado sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup unsweetened rice milk
- 1 tablespoon plain white vinegar
- ¼ cup olive oil
Whisk until smooth.
Add:
- ¾ cup sorghum flour
- ½ teaspoon xanthan gum
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ¾ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ cup cocoa powder
Mix until smooth.
Starting over the center of the baking pan, carefully pour the batter in on top of the vanilla batter, forming swirls as you pour.
Use your silicone spatula to make one or two swirls through the batter, just briefly – you do not want to mix the two batters into one, just create a swirl design so they retain their individual flavors.
Place on middle rack of oven, back 45 minutes.
Let cool 10 minutes prior to cutting.
