Crumpets are half price at Coles this week. The good news is you can stock up and freeze them.
Aldi are usually cheaper than Coles even when on special, which is crazy!
Freezing bread is great. I’d always get two loaves and freeze one, then when I got down to the last few slices of the first I’d move the frozen loaf to the fridge to thaw overnight. Doing it that way meant a slow defrost so it didn’t get soggy. You could always keep it in the freezer and pull off a few slices at a time if you rarely ate bread and usually as toast, but it can be hard to chip slices off without breakage.
I would always keep the active loaf in the fridge too. People say it dries out but I wasn’t going to let it mould before I finished it (or pay extra for mini loaves). And dry bread is why french toast or bread and butter pudding exist.
I divide a loaf of bread in half. Use one half and freeze the other. I also freeze english muffins.
I only have half a small freezer, I can’t stock up ☹️
I never knew you could freeze them. Thank you
