You can also use it for french toast and serve it with vegan yogurt, jam, fruits, and granola!

Preparation

  1. In a saucepan over medium-high heat, bring your choice of plant milk to a high simmer. Switch off the heat, stir in loose leaf chai. Cover and let sit for 5 minutes or even longer for more intense chai flavor. Strain the tea and leave it aside to cool down.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F.

  4. In a high-speed blender, place all wet ingredients and blend until you get a smooth mixture.
  5. Pour wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir until it forms a batter.
  6. Now fold in the add-on ingredients until everything is evenly distributed.
  7. Pour the batter into a lined baking tray and smooth the top. Sprinkle the granola on top. Gently press the granola down so they won’t fall off after baking. Cover the top with aluminum foil.
  8. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes covered. Remove the foil and bake for another 30 minutes or until it turns golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
