Spiced Chai Bundt Cake Recipes

CHAI SPICE BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Place chai tea bag in a small heat resistant glass bowl or cup. Pour boiling water over the tea bag, and let it steep for 5-10 minutes (see #1 in Notes section). Once fully steeped, discard the tea bag.
• In a medium mixing bowl, add flour, salt, and baking powder, and whisk until fully combined. To the flour mixture, add sugar, cinnamon, allspice, ginger, and cardamom, and whisk thoroughly to combine.
• To a 2-cup measuring cup, add milk and Greek yogurt, and mix with a spoon or whisk. Add vanilla and concentrated tea (about 2 tablespoons - see #2 in Notes section), and stir to combine.
• Melt butter in a heat safe bowl in the microwave (or in a saucepan on the stove top), and set aside to cool a little. To the bowl of a stand mixer (or large mixing bowl for a hand mixer), add the milk/yogurt mixture, eggs, and melted butter. Mix on low speed for 1 minute until combined, and then turn off the stand mixer.
• While the stand mixer is turned off, add the flour/sugar mixture to the wet ingredients, and mix on low speed until just barely combined. Remove bowl from mixer, and scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl with a silicone spatula. Generously grease Bundt pan with cooking spray, then gently pour batter into prepared Bundt pan, and bake at 350°F for 30 - 35 minutes.
• To test for doneness, insert a toothpick. If it comes out clean, it's done (see #3 in Notes section). Remove from oven and place pan on a wire cooling rack for 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the cooling rack and place the rack on top of the pan (cake side). Carefully invert the cake onto the rack, but do not lift the pan. Wait about 1 minute and gently tap on the top of the pan a few times and gently lift. Don't force it, it should release perfectly (see #4 in Notes section). Allow to cool completely on the wire rack.
• Once completely cooled, transfer to a cake platter, and serve! Or, if you want to glaze the cake, try our Quick Orange Glaze (see #5 in Notes section).
