<div><p></p><p>Buttermilk is one of those ingredients that most people don't keep on hand, but sometimes it's needed to keep baked goods moist and tender. Sure, you can go out and buy some, but they're usually only sold in large cartons, and it's easy to end up wasting whatever's left!</p><p>If you hate waste, this hack is for you! It's so easy to freeze buttermilk in convenient divvied up batches, and it's just as simple defrosting them as needed. We used a ½ cup silicone muffin tray to easily measure out, freeze and store buttermilk for later use. Read on below and have buttermilk on hand to defrost anytime!</p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/02-15-How-To--Freeze-Butter-Milk-760x760.jpg"
