“This is one of my favorite cupcake recipes in the whole world and it's so easy. The inspiration came from "The Cake Book” by Cupcake Jemma from Jamie Oliver's Food Tube. I think she is super talented and authentic. So here is my vegan version of her chai cupcakes. Want to see your own recipe published on Kitchen Stories? Send it to community@kitchenstories.com!”
