Dirty Chai Latte Oatmeal is a cozy, comforting winter breakfast inspired by a coffeeshop treat.
This Dirty Chai Latte Oatmeal is warm and warming - a bowl of hot, spiced oatmeal is a delightful way to ease into a cold winter morning. With a kick of espresso and lots of chai-inspired spices, there’s no lack of flavor in this oatmeal. It’s just right as-is, without any extra toppings. Sweet from brown sugar, plus a touch of added richness from half-and-half, this oatmeal is best eaten curled up in your favorite fluffy blanket.
Plus, January is National Oatmeal Month! I had to be sure to acknowledge this nutritious grain. Oatmeal is a great way to start your day thanks to its high fiber content. The espresso powder in this Dirty Chai Latte Oatmeal is a nice pick-me-up, too! You might not need that second cup of coffee today.
