    Can you freeze homemade bread?

    Yes, you can freeze homemade bread. It actually freezes quite well. To do so, allow the loaf of bread to cool completely. Then wrap the loaf of bread in foil and place it in a freezer bag making sure all of the air is out. You can freeze the bread for up to 3 months. When you want to eat it, take it out of the freezer and let thaw on counter for 3 hours or overnight in the fridge.
