Chai Masala — the spice blend that Indians use in our tea has the same flavor profiles as pumpkin spice, but even better. Grab a jar and see what I’m talking about. It’s perfect for the Holiday Season and in Pumpkin Pie.
I enlisted the help of my friend Katherine, who is a Pumpkin Pie baking expert (my words, not hers — she's way too modest). All I asked was for her to substitute one tablespoon of my Chai Masala for the spice blend required in her pumpkin pie recipe of choice. The results? Uh-mazing!
Prep: 5 minutes
Makes: ¾ cup
Use this Chai Masala obviously when making Indian tea, but also sprinkled over baked nuts along with some maple syrup, in your granola, in your favorite dessert smoothie, or in your morning yogurt.
