Chorizo and Feta Cake Recipe
Ingredients:
- 8 oz. chorizo sausage, chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 red pepper, diced
- 1 green pepper, diced
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1/2 cup milk

Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch cake pan with oil or cooking spray and set aside.

- Add the onion and garlic to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the diced red and green peppers and continue to cook for an additional 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and crumbled feta cheese. Add in the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, salt, and pepper. Mix to combine.
- Add the chorizo and vegetable mixture to the mixing bowl and stir until evenly combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Allow the chorizo and feta cake to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before removing it from the pan and slicing to serve.
