How to Store Lemon Poppy-Seed Muffins
Cooled muffins can be stored in an airtight container for up to four days. To help absorb excess moisture, which can make the muffins soggy as they sit, line the container or resealable bag with a layer of paper towels, place muffins on top, then set another paper towel on top of muffins before sealing.
Freezing
You can also freeze baked muffins for the future. Let them cool completely, then wrap them individually in plastic and store them in a freezer bag for up to three months. Let them thaw at room temperature for a few hours or microwave them, unwrapped, for 20 to 30 seconds.
What to Serve With Lemon-Poppy Seed Muffins
These flavorful muffins are delicious on their own, but you can certainly dress them up further if you liker. A swipe of softened butter is always good, and if you’d like to add a touch more sweetness, try a drizzle of honey. If you’re partial to fruit preserves, pair them with apricot jam or orange marmalade, which would complement their brightness beautifully.
