I store these muffins in the freezer to pack in lunches. If you pack the muffin frozen, it is thawed well before lunch time. With the muffin, I pack a Greek yogurt stick, fruit and veggies. The muffins are made with unsweetened applesauce and honey to keep the sugar lower than most muffin recipes but they are still sweet enough to keep the kids interested in them. They also have some oat and whole wheat flour to give a little fiber boost in their meal. I hope your kids like them as much as mine do!
