Looking for easy breakfast options? These delicious muffin recipes are just the thing. Make them ahead of time and keep your freezer stocked. 

20+ Delicious Muffin Recipes, Easy Muffins, Make-Ahead Breakfast

I’m not much of a breakfast eater. It’s not that I don’t like breakfast food I just rarely want to do much in the morning, breakfast included. I’m trying to eat breakfast more often though, otherwise, I’m often hungry for lunch far too early.

Make-ahead breakfast foods help me out a lot! It’s so much easier to grab something while I’m making my tea than to try and cook something in the morning. Muffins are one of my favorite quick make-ahead breakfast options. They are easy, I can make a bunch at once and they are delicious.

Most of the muffins I like to make use my homemade baking mix. It makes them even easier to make and since the baking mix is homemade I know it has good ingredients.

I like to make a bunch of muffins and then freeze them. To freeze them just place them on a wax paper lined cookie sheet in the freezer for a couple of hours or until completely frozen. Then you can transfer them to a container. I like to use Pyrex containers but whatever freezer safe container you have will work.

The night before you want a muffin just pull it out of the freezer to thaw overnight. Depending on the type of muffin I may warm it up in the toaster oven in the morning and put a bit of butter on it. It’s the perfect morning treat.

In case you are not much of a morning person, like myself, I thought I’d share some delicious muffin recipes from my own recipe box and other bloggers recipes as well.

    Making a batch and freezing them is a good idea! The chocolate espresso banana muffins from this post look wonderful! When I was in college, a muffin place near campus had the greatest chocolate cheese muffin. It had a sweet ricotta filling. I have made several recipes found online, but none have reproduced the taste. The muffin shop closed years ago, so I am still searching for a replacement recipe!

    Oh my goodness! I want EVERY SINGLE muffin you have listed! They look so delicious! I am partial to anything involving chocolate but you may have turned me into an all-inclusive muffin lover! Thank you for sharing how your freeze and store the muffins too. That is very helpful for meal planning. I am definitely saving this page for future muffin making! 🙂

    These all look amazing. I made blueberry muffins over the weekend and should have doubled the recipe so I could have frozen some.

    Love this list! Lemon poppy seed is my FAVORITE and I actually rarely have it and I’ve never actually made it. Perhaps it’s time I start!
