Why store baked goods in the same dish with apples: a useful life hack

It often happens that homemade pastries start to get stale almost immediately after cooking. This causes it to become hard and lose its flavor. But there is a very simple solution to this problem.

A useful life hack that will help baked goods not to get stale for a long time was published by Lifehack.

To keep your homemade cookies or pies fresh, you should put them in a plastic container with apple slices. This way, moisture will remain in the dishes and be absorbed by the baked goods.

Also, right now is the time to use apples to make delicious pies and buns, because the season of these fruits is in full swing.

The idea of making fluffy buns with apples was published on the Instagram page of food blogger Anna with the nickname annet_days.

5. Form the buns.
