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?

Been gluten free for so long honestly i much prefer the slight taste difference when you freeze it. Ive found peices in the deep depths or my freezer from several years ago and its still perfectly fine

Some of the GF hamburger buns I’ve frozen, when they thaw out, they get so mushy and nasty from the thawing process… Maybe I wasn’t using proper freezer bags? Not sure but that one time put me off towards freezing any breads, I don’t want them to be soggy when they come out!
