Question How do i stop my GF bread from molding?

What am I doing wrong? If i keep it in the same packaging vs bagging individually, if I keep it on the top of the fridge vs in the cupboard, no matter what my GF bread keeps molding.

I’ve had a moldy bread issue before I was GF too. Am I doing something fundamentally wrong? Is it a temperature thing? Am I just not eating it fast enough? Loaf of bread never lasts more than a week without molding, I usually only eat 60-70% of the loaf before it molds, so I have to get a new loaf each weekend we grocery shop.

Any ideas?

This but take some out and put as much as you’d need for the week in the fridge bc toasting frozen bread is 😖

Depending on if your toaster has a frozen function use that! I toast my bagels right from being frozen and as long as I use the frozen option (not the bagel one) it’s good

You could also defrost in the microwave, then toast it

That's a great point. I haven't been able to find many GF breads that are large enough to last more than a few days or a week. 😆. Don't get me started on Schnar sourdough that's only 5 pieces ... 🫣
