Notes
Storage:
Store in an airtight container. Or if muffins only need to be stored for a short period of time, a zip-top plastic bag will do. Note: These muffins do sweat. How long will they last?
Up to 2 days at room temperature and 3 days (possibly more) if kept in the fridge. These muffins spoil faster than your average baked good. The flavor enhances with time:
The taste is best when fully cooled and even better the next day!
