You can freeze pumpkin pie before baking it and even after baking it.

If you have not baked the pumpkin pie yet and want to freeze it then you should wrap the entire pumpkin pie in a few layers of plastic wrap and then follow that with a layer of some heavy duty aluminum or tin foil.

When freezing pumpkin pie place some foil and or plastic wrap over the pumpkin pie and it will keep good for around 6 months but it's best to eat the frozen pumpkin pie within a few months of freezing it for the best taste and quality.

To keep pumpkin pie fresh place the pumpkin pie in a sealed container or loosely wrap the pumpkin pie in some plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate it.

You can also bake pumpkin pie weeks ahead of time and then freeze it and thaw it when ready.

Pumpkin pie will remain safe in the freezer for around 6 months or longer and in the fridge pumpkin pie should last 2 to 4 days.

When baking or cooking a frozen pumpkin pie from raw you bake it for around 60 minutes to 70 minutes and rotate the pumpkin pie halfway through.

If reheating an already cooked frozen pumpkin pie it takes around 2 minutes at 400 F.

Bake a raw pumpkin pie at 350 F to 375F for 60 to 70 minutes.

The best way to reheat a pumpkin pie is to flash bake it for around 2 minutes in a preheated oven at 400 F.

You can bake a thawed pumpkin pie and the best way to bake a thawed pumpkin pie is to flash bake it in a preheated oven at 400 F for around 2 minutes.

Flash baking the thawed frozen pumpkin pie is a good way to reheat it.

Pumpkin pies do have flavor and have a similar earthy sweet flavor which can be bitter and sometimes less enjoyable to eat on it's own for some people.

Pumpkin pies do require refrigeration if not serving or eating them within 2 hours as pumpkin pies without refrigeration will spoil and grow bacteria.

A pumpkin pie can sit out at room temperature for up to 2 hours.

After 2 hours the pumpkin pie at room temperature can begin to grow bacteria and should be thrown out.

If not eating or serving the pumpkin pie within 2 hours it should be kept refrigerated or frozen.

When refrigerated pumpkin pie is usually good for 3 to 5 days although it may last a bit longer.

You can freeze the pumpkin pie if you want to keep it longer.

When frozen the pumpkin pie will last for 6 months to a year.

However the frozen pumpkin pie is best eaten within a few months of freezing it for the best taste and quality.

If your pie contains eggs or dairy products, the pie should be stored in the refrigerator and not left out at room temperature for more than two hours.

Pies that do not contain dairy products, such as fruit pies can be stored, loosely covered at room temperature for up to two days.

After baking, pie should be left at room temperature to cool for 2 to 4 hours.

Within 4 hours, the pie should then be placed in the refrigerator and covered loosely with plastic wrap.

Pie may be refrigerated for 2 to 3 days.
