  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before glazing them: This will help the glaze set properly.
  • Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the muffins for up to 2 months.
