• butter - 100 g;
• salt - to taste;
• eggs - 3 pcs;
• cocoa powder - 10 g;
• vanillin - 1/3 tsp (or to taste);
• flour - 190 g;
• kefir - 220 ml;
• soda - 2/3 tsp

Cooking

1. We start cooking with the preparation of products. All foods must be at room temperature.

2. Mix sugar, butter, salt and vanillin in a deep bowl.

3. Beat until smooth with a mixer.

4. Add eggs one at a time to the mass. Stir in each egg for approximately one minute.

5. We got a smooth, homogeneous mass.

6. Sift the flour and add half to the total mass. Beat with a mixer until smooth.

7. Add soda to kefir and mix thoroughly. Additionally, soda should not be extinguished with vinegar, this function will be performed by kefir. We send half of the kefir to the dough and continue to beat with a mixer.

8. Pour in the remaining flour - beat. Next, pour in the second portion of kefir, and also beat. Thanks to the alternation technique, there will be no lumps in the mass. The dough turned out smooth and fairly thick.

9. Pour the dough into two identical bowls. We leave one dough light, add cocoa to the second bowl. Sift cocoa through a sieve.

10. We have prepared the dough, we are starting to mold the pie.

11. We take a form Ø22 cm and cover it with baking paper. Grease the bottom and sides with butter. The form can be taken smaller, then the baking will be higher. But the taller the cake, the more likely it is to crack during baking.

12. Put two tablespoons of white dough in the center of the mold. The adze is slightly blurred along the bottom, on top of the white one lay out two tablespoons of dough with cocoa. Again we take the white dough, two spoons, and put it in the middle of the form, on top of the dark dough. So we continue to alternate until both doughs run out. The point is that each subsequent portion of the dough pushes the previous portion of the dough. Visually, it seems that dark and light stripes alternate, like the color of a zebra. The main thing is that the dough should always be laid out strictly in the center of the form, and try not to make blots. In the end, here is such a beauty turned out.

13. Using a wooden skewer, we draw a picture.

14. Heat the oven at t-170 ° C. Bake the Zebra pie on kefir in the oven for 45-55 minutes.

15. After 50-55 minutes, check the readiness of baking with a wooden skewer. With a sharp knife, we pass around the sides and take the cupcake out of the mold. Leave the cake to cool, after which you can decorate it to your liking.

16. Zebra kefir pie is ready. It looks beautiful even without decoration. It also looks original in the cut.
