Storage Instructions:
For Room Temperature:
Once your banana chocolate chunk muffins have cooled completely, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. This will keep them fresh and soft for a few days.
For Longer Storage (Refrigeration):
If you want to keep your muffins longer, you can store them in the fridge for up to 1 week. Just make sure they are in an airtight container to prevent them from drying out.

These muffins freeze beautifully! To freeze, allow them to cool completely, then place them in a ziplock bag or airtight container. Label the bag with the date and store them in the freezer for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to enjoy them, simply reheat them in the microwave for 20-30 seconds or bake at 350°F for 5-10 minutes to warm them up.
