How to Freeze Pumpkin Pie
Freeze Your Pumpkin Pie and Save Precious Time (and Oven Space) on Thanksgiving
5
The day before your celebration, remove the pie from the freezer. Discard the wrappings, and defrost in the refrigerator. Allow the item at least 12 hours to thaw. Avoid thawing at room temperature or in the microwave because these methods cause condensation on the pie. Remember, added moisture will soak into the crust and make the dessert soggy. Ensure the pie remains level in the refrigerator as it defrosts.
Once the item has thoroughly thawed, place the dessert on a decorative plate and let it reach room temperature for serving. If your pie has any dents or blemishes, whipped cream, icing sugar, and an extra dash of cinnamon make for a delightful cover-up.
