How to Make Chai Oatmeal

  1. In a deep, microwave-safe bowl, combine 1/2 cup rolled oats and 1 teaspoon of chai spice blend.
  2. Add 1 cup of milk (dairy or non-dairy) and stir well to ensure the oats are evenly coated with the spice mixture and milk.
  3. Microwave on high for 2 minutes. Stir thoroughly to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
  4. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency. This may take an additional 1-2 minutes depending on your microwave and preferred thickness.
  5. Remove from microwave and let stand for a minute to allow the oatmeal to thicken slightly.
  6. Top with your favorite toppings! We recommend 2 tablespoons of plain yogurt and 1 teaspoon of maple syrup for a delicious and balanced flavor profile.
