Storage and Freezing
Store covered at room temperature for up to 3 days. The texture holds well, making it a good option for planning ahead.
It can also be made the night before and gently warmed before serving to bring back a fresh-baked feel.
It freezes well when wrapped tightly and thawed at room temperature. Add the glaze after it thaws.
