Hi, Rachel!
Love your Sunday Glow Newsletter! I am planning to make the Super Seed Muffins and just want to share that the absolute best luck I have had with muffin pan liners is using parchment baking cups–either large or extra-large. I use the Paper Chef brand, but I know there must be others out there. They do not stick to the muffins like traditional paper baking cups do. Great suggestion on freezing muffins–even in reusable containers they keep just fine. I find that if you pull them out of the freezer in the morning, and pop them into a reusable container or bag, they are thawed and fabulously moist within a couple of hours. They also microwave well if you are in a pinch for time. Happy Sunday!
Thanks Deb for the freezer and muffin liner tips! Let me know how your muffins turn out!
