You can easily freeze your bread. Simply slice the loaf and freeze the slices individually. The bread can be toasted straight from frozen or let it thaw at room temperature when you're ready to enjoy it. Thawing: To thaw frozen English muffin bread, remove the desired number of slices from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature. They'll be ready to eat or toast in no time.Reheating Instructions: If you prefer your English muffin bread warm, you can reheat it in the oven or microwave.

If using the microwave, place the bread slice on a microwave-safe plate and heat for a few seconds until warm.
