Perhaps this is a silly question, but is it possible to freeze the dough for the second loaf? I dont want to make two loaves of deliciousness at once. Can you freeze yeast? If yes, at what point is it best to freeze?
Hi Rebecca,
Yes, it's possible to freeze the dough for the second bread. If you know you will be freezing the dough, add about 1/4 teaspoon extra yeast to the dough. This will make up for any yeast that dies off in the freezer. Thaw the dough in the fridge overnight and then make the bread as usual. You can also use the dough for cinnamon buns or cinnamon swirl bread. ~ MaryJane
