Multicooker zebra cake
Zebra cake is one of our favorite simple homemade cakes to serve with tea. Sometimes I spread it with condensed milk or drizzle over melted chocolate; sometimes we eat it plain. Its slightly moist crumb needs no syrup.

Use the measuring cup supplied with your multicooker for the glass measurements in this recipe.
Beat eggs with sugar. Add kefir. Mix flour with baking powder, add to eggs and kefir. Beat a little again.
Divide the batter in half. Stir 2 tablespoons of cocoa into one half and 2 tablespoons of flour into the other.
Place a circle of oiled paper on the bottom of the multicooker. Lay out the dough alternating light and dark: 2 spoons of one, then two spoons of the other.
Place on the “Baking” program for an hour and a half (90 minutes). After the timer goes off, leave the pie in the multicooker for another 10 minutes. Invert the pie onto a wire rack and leave to cool.
The cake has a striped pattern when sliced. I served it plain with tea, but you can cut it into layers and fill it with custard or sweetened sour cream.
