Leftovers
One of the best things about blueberry muffins is that they are so versatile. Whether you are looking for a quick breakfast on the go or a delicious afternoon snack, muffins are a great option.
However, sometimes you may find yourself with more muffins than you know what to do with.
You can store leftover blueberry muffins in an airtight container and store them at room temperature. They will stay fresh for 2-3 days.
If you want to store your muffins for longer you can freeze them. Muffins can be stored for up to 3 months in the freezer.
How to Freeze Blueberry Muffins
To freeze blueberry muffins, first let muffins cool completely.
Then, place in a single layer, without them touching on a baking sheet. Place them into the freezer for about an hour. This will help to prevent them from sticking together.
After they are frozen, you can transfer them to a freezer bag or other freezer safe container to store in the freezer.
Once you are ready to eat them, you can thaw the muffins at room temperature. I like to pull them out of the freezer the night before eating them the next morning.
Can I Use Frozen Blueberries?
You can use either frozen or fresh blueberries. Either way will work in this great recipe.
If you prefer, you can also use wild blueberries in this recipe.
