Tip

Store in Ziploc® brand bags or containers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days (or in the freezer for up to 1 month). To pack for lunch, warm in the microwave for 30 seconds and pack with an ice pack. The muffins will be delicious at a temperature slightly lower than room temperature. If there is a microwave available, simply pack cold and reheat on location for 30 seconds.
