Storage and Reheating Tips

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to restore crispiness. Avoid microwaving, as it may make the pastry soggy. These can also be frozen before baking and cooked directly from frozen with a few extra minutes added to the baking time.
