Chai Spice Muffins

Print Recipe

Tender, warmly spiced muffins infused with chai spices—perfect for breakfast or an afternoon snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • ½ tsp ground cardamom
  • ¼ tsp ground cloves
  • ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup (240 ml) milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • ½ cup (115 g) melted unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 °F (190 °C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and all spices until evenly combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat eggs lightly, then whisk in milk, melted butter, and vanilla.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir just until combined—do not overmix.
  5. Divide batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
  6. Bake for 17–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  7. Let muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free version, swap milk for almond or oat milk and use coconut oil instead of butter.
  • You can stir in ½ cup raisins or chopped nuts for texture.
  • Store cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
