I’m sorry, I’ve only made these in the Instant Pot or in the stove. I would suggest 400 degrees for about 10 to 15 minutes and then toss them with the garlic, melted butter, salt, and pepper.

Unfortunately, I’ve only ever made these right before serving. I’m sure they can be warmed up and enjoyed. I would imagine they will be delicious, just slightly less so than if fresh.
