Storage/Freezing
This cornbread is best kept at room temperature. Wrap it tightly in parchment paper and store in an air-tight container. It will last for 1 to 2 days.
After 1 to 2 days, it's best to transfer it to the fridge or freezer. It will keep for 4 to 5 days in the fridge, again wrapped well and in an air-tight container.
Or transfer it to a freezer safe plastic bag or container and keep in the freezer for 2 to 3 months.
