How To Store These Banana Crumb Muffins
You have options. Banana muffins can be stored on the counter covered up, or even in the fridge. I find that storing them in the fridge will extend the shelf life 2-3 days more. Now, the counter offers more light and soft muffins. If you prefer them room temperature you can always let them warm up on the counter before you eat from the fridge.
Best Bananas To Use For Muffins
You will want to reach for a banana that is ripe. Buy bananas that have speckles of brown spots. This means the banana is nice and ripe and will offer lots of flavors. If you use a pale yellow or green banana they will be harder to mush up and lack flavor.
