How Long Do Glazed Donut Muffins Last?

Can you freeze donuts and muffins?

Whenever I make donuts and muffins I like to make extra. By making extras I can freeze half of them to have for another time. This works for both muffins and donuts, and in this case, donut muffins. It is simple to freeze donuts. Wait until muffins have cooled and the icing has set. It can be helpful to freeze the donut muffins first and the put the muffins into a freezer bag. This helps to keep the icing on the muffins from sticking to the plastic. The donut muffins will last for about 3 months in the freezer.

Variations on glazed donut muffins (different spices or fruits in mix)

What I love about these glazed donut muffins is that it is easy to change up this recipe. In order the change the recipe, you can try:

• Change the flavor – Make these chocolate donuts. Make it pumpkin spice. Add apple pie seasoning.
• Add fruit – Just like adding in flavors you can also add in fruit. Try adding strawberries, blueberries or raspberries. Add in dried fruit like raisins, cranberries or mangos.
