What Makes This Recipe Great
This Chai Spiced Oatmeal Bake is an easy breakfast to make ahead on a Sunday to have ready for the week. My kids love all kinds of oatmeal bakes and I love that they are easy to grab out of the fridge and eat while I am making lunches and drinking coffee in the morning. Chai tea gets its great flavor from both tea and spices so this recipe has it all. Not only do we steep some tea bags into oat milk and use that but also a mix of chai spices which are cardamom, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves.
Cardamom is the flavor that really makes chai stand apart from your other basic holiday spices. So if you are like me and you love a make ahead breakfast moment, add this to your list next week! I am sure you will be happy you did!
