Tips for Making Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Muffins

Use room-temperature ingredients to make your muffins.

Instead of peanut butter, use almond butter, sunflower butter, or cashew butter.

Swap out all-purpose flour for gluten-free flour to make gluten-free peanut butter muffins. To make even healthier, more protein-packed muffins, use almond flour.

How to Store Peanut Butter Muffins

Keep your muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days. For longer storage, refrigerate the muffins for up to 5 days. You can also freeze peanut butter muffins for up to 3 months. Thaw them in the fridge overnight before serving.
