Someone probably has better tips than me...  I think gluten free bread in general has a bit of a tougher consistency by nature.  I like to put the buns in foil in the oven to warm them.  As far as bread, I pop it in the toaster, and I prefer mine toasted, but I have also just warmed it until it was defrosted, but not toasted.  (Our toaster has a defrost button)

I always toast it or warm it.  Gives it better consistency.

I agree with others that GF bread in general tastes better & has a nicer consistency when warmed up... does not have to be toasted, just warmed.

I take a few days supply of bread & bagels out of the freezer at a time and place it in the fridge to thaw. Then when ready to eat, it is just a quick warm-up in the toaster. This also allows my son to make his own lunchbox sandwiches independently (young teen) because he is allowed to use the toaster without supervision - but not the oven or microwave.

For the hamburger & hot dog buns, I usually leave those in the freezer... When needed, I wrap an individual bun in a paper towel and put it in the microwave on defrost mode. The paper towel keeps the moisture in nicely as it warms... or if you want it even moister, mist/sprinkle the paper towel with water before putting it in the microwave.

Hi Mike. We typically recommend exactly what Christine mentioned below. We don't normally suggest putting our breads in the refrigerator (even to thaw), because they tend to dry out that way. However, some people have success with that tactics.

I hope this helps!

I like ur suggestion of putting out the next day's supply (3 for me) in a ziplok bag on the counter.  

Cold from refrigerator, then toasted, makes it very hard.  Maybe I am toasting it too long, just need to warm it.

Thanks!  vk

If you do put your bread in a sealed bag on the counter to thaw, try to remember to turn it over about 5 minutes of taking it out of freezer to keep the moisture consistent. Sometimes (I remember with Glutenated breads in the past) one side would be soggy the other drier. So I learned to turn my bread as it thaws to keep that from happening. My family is one that toasts our Udi's bread to defrost to use.

I toast mine every time. Right from the freezer. 

Sometimes I toast it and sometimes I warm it in the microwave for a few seconds.
