#BundtBakers is a group of bundt loving bakers who get together once a month to bake bundt cakes with a common ingredient or theme.

Except that this month, Colleen of Faith, Hope, Love & Luck Survive Despite a Whiskered Accomplice is breaking that mold and challenging us to think outside of the bundt pan. To bake something in our favorite cake pan that isn’t cake!

I didn’t know if I was going to sign up for this one given my summer blogging break but one of my best friends from college shared a Facebook video with me. Her timing couldn’t have been more perfect! The video was for a fajita bundt cake. Yes. Fajitas. In a bundt. It looked so fun, we just had to try it!

Picture your bundt cake. But instead of a rich cake center, imagine fajita seasoned chicken and veggies. Instead of a cake crust to cut through, imagine tortillas. And instead of frosting and sprinkles, imagine sour cream and cilantro.

The dinner was so fun and would definitely be a show stopper for company.

Chicken Fajita Bundt Cake

Ingredients:

• 3 chicken breasts, sliced
• 2 bell peppers, sliced
• 1 onion, sliced
• 2 tbsp fajita seasoning
• 2 tbsp olive oil, plus more for greasing the pan
• 1 tbsp salt
• 9 flour tortillas
• 1 1/2 C shredded Mexican blend cheese
• 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 tomato, diced
• 1 C sour cream
• 1 lime

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss together the chicken, bell peppers, onion, fajita seasoning, olive oil, and salt. Bake 30 minutes.
3. Reduce oven temperature to 360 degrees F.
4. Brush a bundt pan with olive oil. Tuck 5 tortillas into the pan, add the remaining 4 tortillas behind the first layer. Put half of the cheese into the tortilla-lined bundt pan. Top with the cooked chicken mixture, tomato, cilantro, and remaining cheese.
5. Press tortillas over the cheese. Bake 25 minutes.
6. Flip out the fajita cake.
7. Mix sour cream with a little lime juice, to taste. “Frost” the “cake.” Garnish with chopped cilantro and lime zest.
