Storage Tips
Keeping your Batty Bagels fresh and tasty is super important! 🥯 Here’s what I do to make sure they stay delicious.
Short-Term Storage
- If you’re planning to eat the bagels within 2-3 days, just keep them in a sealed paper bag at room temperature. This keeps them fresh without getting soggy.
Freezing for Longer Freshness
- For longer storage, I freeze them! Just wrap each bagel in plastic wrap and pop them into a freezer bag. They’ll last up to 3 months.
Thawing and Reheating
- To enjoy them later, take them out and let them thaw at room temperature. Then, toast them lightly to bring back that fresh-from-the-oven feel.
Extra Tip 🔍
- If you’re in a rush, you can microwave a frozen bagel for about 30 seconds before toasting. It makes them soft and warm!
This method really helps me keep my bagels fresh and yummy every time. Try these tips out and see how well they work for you! 😊
