    How to Store Pie

    You can make or prepare many of these pies ahead of time. You can store most of them before baking (either separately or assembled) for up a day or 2 in the refrigerator or up to 3 months in the freezer. Once baked, you can store them at room temperature for 1-2 days (depending on the recipe), up to one week in the refrigerator, or up to 3 months in the freezer. Confirm storing instructions by checking the specific recipe post for the dessert that you are making.

    To reheat any of these recipes and serve them warm, reheat the whole pie in a 300F preheated oven or reheat a slice air fryer for 5-15 minutes until fully warmed through, depending on the recipe. If heating from frozen, let it thaw first and then reheat.
