  3. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and chai spices. Fold this mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  5. Bake for 45-50 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
