Chai Pumpkin Breakfast Muffins for a Friend

This recipe for Chai Pumpkin Breakfast Muffins for a Friend is a warm, spicy breakfast idea for fall. Adding chai spice and pumpkin pie spice is a great flavor combination. These muffins are perfect to warm up your home on a chilly day or take to a friend or family member.

I have a fall-inspired muffin recipe to tell you about that’s comforting, will make your house smell wonderful and is perfect to take to a friend or family member in need.

On chilly days I often think to myself I need to bake something. I love the spicy flavors of chai. Chai spices are delicious in baked treats.

These fall-inspired muffins would be welcomed in a care basket. I think these muffins are best enjoyed warm and topped with nut butter.

I’m on a chai-pumpkin baking kick this year, as I have made this batch of muffins multiple times as well as this recipe for Pumpkin Chai Slow Cooker Oats.

I used pre-made chai spice mix for this recipe, but this DIY Chai Spice Mix from Fit Foodie Finds also looks delicious.
