Storage Instructions for Pigs in a Blanket
If you’re preparing ahead for the big game, Pigs in a Blanket can be a lifesaver.
Once baked, allow them to cool completely, then store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
When it’s game time, simply pop them in a preheated oven for a few minutes to warm them up.
For longer storage, you can freeze the unbaked pigs in a blanket on a baking sheet until firm, then transfer them to a freezer bag.
When needed, bake them straight from the freezer, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.
