Ingredients & Substitutions

Tips & Notes

  • Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Recipe Variations

  • Add chopped nuts such as walnuts or pecans for added crunch.
  • Substitute blueberries with raspberries or chopped strawberries for a different flavor.

Storage & Freezing

Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. To freeze, wrap each muffin tightly in plastic wrap and place in a freezer-safe bag.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these muffins gluten-free?

Yes, you can substitute the whole wheat flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Make sure to add a binder like xanthan gum if your blend does not contain one.
