Chai Tea and Banana Muffins - Exclusive Recipe for UPS cutomers


Chai tea is an ancient Indian tea blend which is made by combining black tea with spices such as black pepper, cinnamon, cardammon, cloves and nutmeg. Cinnamon is a well-known fat burning spice as it has the ability to increase insulin sensitivity - meaning that your body becomes more effective at utilising food as energy and ensuring that your blood sugar is kept steady for a longer period following a meal.


In addition you're getting a nice dose of chromium from the rolled oats (which also helps to keep your blood sugar low), high biologically-available proteins from the eggs and the UPS whey protein as well as natural energy and minerals from the banana.  I used organic chai tea bags however if you don't have these on hand, the spice mix below or Chinese Five Spice will suffice.
These make a great balanced snack or pre-workout meal for people on the go - they don't require refrigeration once cooked and will last for two days when stored in an airtight container
in a cool, dry place.


Ingredients:
1/2 cup of strong black chai tea (or 1/2 teaspoon each of ground cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice mixed into 1/2 cup water)
2 serves of Ultimate Slim in Banana Twist
1 medium banana
2/3 cup of oats
2 whole eggs
1 teaspoon of baking powder

Method:

Add the chai tea, UPS Banana Twist, oats, eggs and baking powder to a food processor and mix until the oats have lost their shape and the mixture is smooth.
Chop the banana into thin slices before pouring the chai-banana mixture into 6 muffin trays (medium to large size) and placing the banana slices
on top of each of the muffin mixes.

Bake in a preheated oven at 160 degrees for twenty minutes or until the muffins have puffed up and are firm to the touch.
