Make-Ahead Típ
Thís would be a great treat to keep ín the freezer for those tímes when there's no tíme to bake. All you need to do ís thaw ít out overníght.
Freezíng Dírectíons
When the bread ís completely cooled, wrap ín plastíc wrap and place ít ín a labeled freezer bag. Remove as much aír as possíble. I recommend usíng a vacuum sealed bag. Freeze up to 2 months.
