Steps

Heat the oven to 350 F and grease a 9-inch round cake pan with cooking oil.
Stir the flaxmeal, coconut oil, canola oil, water, orange juice, vinegar, and first sugar amount in a large bowl.
Whisk the first flour amounts, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves into that bowl to make the light batter.
Stir the remaining water, sugar, agave, coconut milk, vinegar, oil, salt, flour, baking powder, and cocoa into a second bowl.
Alternate spoonfuls of both batters in the pan, then gently swirl them with a knife.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the center is set, and cool the cake for 10 minutes.
