Ingredients
  

  • 1 batch muffins

Instructions
 

  • Let the homemade muffins fully cool on a cooling rack.
  • Place the muffins on a cookie sheet in the freezer for 1-3 hours until completely frozen. This is called a quick freeze, it reduces ice crystals from forming and prevents the muffins from sticking together.
  • Take the frozen muffins and place them into a sealing bag, close the bag with only a small space to place a straw into the bag and suck out any air. Then quickly seal the bag.
  • Be sure to label the muffins with today's date and what kind they are! Then place muffins into the freezer. These muffins will last 3-4 months, they can last longer however the taste and texture may be altered.
  • To reheat muffins: Remove muffins from the freezer, keep them at room temperature to reheat gradually. To heat quickly from frozen, place the muffins on a cookie sheet and into an oven heated to 350 degrees F for 10-15 minutes.
