If I could pick a favourite flavour of muffin, it would have to be morning glory muffins, HANDS DOWN. I love that they include a little bit of everything (fruit, veg, nuts, seeds, etc.) and that they truly taste like heaven. This is a chai spiced version, but you can totally omit the spices if you would like! Chai is an incredible flavour enhancer, but it’s also loaded with nutrient-dense properties. The spices in a chai spice usually include spices like cinnamon, clove, ginger, black pepper, cardamom and star anise. These spices are naturally anti-inflammatory, making them the perfect addition to your diet for healthy skin, reducing the risk of disease and so much more. These spices are also wonderful for digestion and reducing bloat. Chai spices are loaded with Vitamin C, making them a perfect option for a little immunity boost!

These morning glory muffins are:

  • loaded with flavour – simply super delicious.
  • easy to make – try making this with the kiddies!
  • packed with goodness like fibre, vitamin C and healthy fats for digestion, immune support and hormone health
  • the best 3pm snack – I love it with some almond butter with a cup of chai tea!
