FAQ'S

Can I make my own muffin liners with parchment paper?

Using a ruler and a roll of parchment paper, trace and cut out a dozen 6-inch (15-cm) squares. Working with 1 square at a time, place it on your work surface, position the bottom of a drinking glass on top, and fold the edges of the square up around the glass. Then place the paper cup in the muffin tin.

For pre-made paper liners, I prefer these.

You can also get the silicone ones I used, here.

How to Store these muffins?

To store blueberry muffins, line an airtight container with paper towels, then arrange the muffins in the container in a single layer. Throw in a few saltines or a slice of bread to absorb the excess moisture. Close the lid and store at room temperature for up to four days.

Can you Freeze Muffins?

Yes, blueberry muffins freeze well. Wrap them individually in storage wrap, then place in a freezer-safe container. Freeze for up to two months. Thaw at room temperature or gently in the microwave.

Are Blueberry Muffins Healthy?

It depends on the recipe. We wouldn’t consider these healthy blueberry muffins because they’re made from butter, flour, and sugar. However, they’re homemade and you know exactly what’s inside the batter. For some reason, they feel better than eating blueberry pie for breakfast! If you are looking for a healthier alternative, you’ll appreciate these Mixed Berry Muffins.

Tips

For best results:
