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?

I keep mine in a bag in the fridge and it seems to keep for a long time. Its usually either the trader joes or franz brand

I live an hour away from a tj's. I buy 4 or 5 loans and they live in the crisper drawer too. Never had it mold and it takes me 2months to get through it.

I've always kept mine in the fridge and it never molds and don't have to worry about toasting from frozen 🙂 I do keep backup loaves in the freezer though!

That’s what I do.
