Zebra cupcakes are a simple recipe for an impressive dessert. They are moist, soft, and so tasty that not even crumbs are left behind.

Marbled zebra cupcakes
Zebra cupcakes are made with the addition of yoghurt, which gives them a delicate texture and a light, creamy taste. Moreover, they are perfectly moist after baking, and the addition of cocoa gives them even more flavour. They look really impressive and are cost-effective - just alternate two types of batter.
They taste great on their own, but you can also decorate them with glaze, cream, or fruit. They are perfect for special occasions, children's parties, family gatherings, or simple afternoon snacks.
Ingredients:
- 125 ml natural yoghurt,
- 2 eggs,
- 80 ml vegetable oil,
- 100 g sugar,
- 150 g all-purpose flour,
- 2 teaspoons baking powder,
- 2 teaspoons cocoa powder,
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Preparation:
Step 1. Transfer the yoghurt into a large bowl, add the sugar, eggs, and oil, and mix thoroughly. Then sift the flour with the baking powder and mix well or blend.
Step 2. Divide the resulting batter into two parts. To one part, add the cocoa powder and mix well. Pour the vanilla extract into the second part. You can also add seeds scraped from a vanilla pod.
Step 3. Alternately spoon the light and dark batters into cupcake moulds. Place in an oven preheated to 180 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes.
Step 4. After this time, remove the zebra cupcakes from the oven and set them aside to cool. Once they have cooled, you can remove the paper liners. Enjoy!
