Chai Tea Muffins

Muffins

Chai tea is a mix of sweet and spicy (cinnamon) and these muffins are infused with the flavors of the tea. The longer you steep the tea the better for more amazing chai-essence. These nut-free muffins make a great breakfast or an afternoon treat with a cup of Chai Latte on the side. These muffins can be made vegan simply by using an egg substitute. Enjoy!
