- 10 g baking powder
- 200 g flour
- 50 ml oil
For the green layer:
- 100 g spinach fresh or frozen
- 100 ml water

Instructions
Prepare the batter:
- In a large bowl, mix together the eggs, yogurt, grated or crumbled cheese, salt, baking powder, flour, and oil until a smooth, homogeneous batter forms.
- Divide the mixture evenly into two bowls—one for the white layer and one for the green layer
Prepare the green layer:
- Blend the spinach, water, and flour in a blender or food processor until smooth.
- Stir the spinach mixture into one of the bowls of batter until fully incorporated.
Assemble the loaf:
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F).
- Line a loaf tin with parchment paper.
- Pour half of the spinach batter into the prepared tin, followed by half of the white batter.
- Repeat the layering process with the remaining batter.
Bake:
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the loaf rises, cracks slightly on the surface, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool & Serve:
- Let the loaf cool completely before slicing. Serve as a savory snack, appetizer or side dish.
