Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200c/400f/gas mark 6.
Place the Spiced Chai in a jug, add the boiling water and stir until dissolved and smooth. Then top this mixture up with the milk and set aside.
In a large bowl sift together the plain flour with the baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt. Stir in the oatmeal and sugar and make a well in the centre.
In a jug mix together the melted butter, yogurt, beaten egg and honey then stir in the Spiced Chai mixture and pour into the dry ingredients. Stir together until just mixed together, if it looks a little lumpy this is fine as over mixing will result in rubbery muffins.
Divide the mixture between a 12 hole deep muffin tin lined with muffin cases then sprinkle each with a little extra oatmeal.
Cook in the preheated oven for 15–18 minutes or until well risen, golden and firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and cool for a few minutes in their tin before removing and cooling on a wire rack. Just delicious served slightly warm.
