To freeze
Wrap cooked and cooled muffins tightly with cling film and place in a ziplock bag and freeze.

To reheat
Defrost muffins in the fridge or covered on the counter.

Oven: Place muffins on a baking tray and reheat in the oven at 180˚C until warmed through.

Microwave: For a quicker breakfast on the go option use the microwave. Place on a piece of paper towel on a microwave-safe plate. Reheat gently in the microwave on medium power until hot and warmed through to the centre, about 30 seconds (from thawed) or 1 to 2 minutes (from frozen).
