This vanilla chai glazed donut recipe makes the perfect fall-flavored treat. If you are over the pumpkin spice craze and apple cinnamon just isn't your taste, this flavor combination might just get you enthused.
From Amanda and featured on the Free People blog, the baked dessert is easy to make and healthier compared to other deep fried donuts. Plus, when you make them your whole home will be full of an enticing autumnal aroma.
To try the glazed donut recipe at home, you will need strongly steeped chai tea, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, coriander, vanilla extract, flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, an egg and coconut oil. The glaze is made out of confectioner's sugar, chai tea, cinnamon and brown sugar.
