Ingredients (makes 2 servings)
Instructions
- Make the chai tea concentrate using 1/4 cup of boiling water and 1 chai tea bag and leave it to infuse for 3-5 minutes. Alternatively, you can make your own chai tea concentrate using the spices and black tea in this recipe: Chai Tea Latte. Place all the dry ingredients in bowl and combine well.
- Add the cinnamon, eggs, melted coconut oil, stevia (if used) ...
- ... and the chai tea concentrate. Mix well and place in two mugs or ramekins.
- Microwave each mug cake on high for 70-90 seconds.
Tips for cooking in the oven: If you don't have a microwave, I suggest you make 4-8 servings at once. Preheat the oven to 175 °C/ 350 °F and cook for about 12-15 minutes or until cooked in the centre.
- When done, you can optionally top the mug cakes with whipped cream or creamed coconut milk and a pinch of cinnamon. Enjoy!
