How Do I Keep Muffins Fresh?

To keep your muffins fresh, put them in a container that seals tight, like a Tupperware, with a layer of paper towels underneath. Adding some saltines can also help soak up any extra moisture. Your muffins will stay yummy at room temperature for around four days.
Can I Freeze Muffins?
You can freeze homemade muffins for up to two months. When you’re ready to munch on them, just let them thaw out at room temperature or gently warm them up in the microwave. Super simple!
