how do you free your pot pies?

WaitPatientlyOnTheLord · 04-11-2012, 06:44 PM

I cook my potpies by cooking all the filling completely on the stove top and then fill the pie shells and bake them....

I want to freeze them...How should I do that? Before I bake them or after? Cooking the filling on the stove top has to be done either way, Im just not sure if I should freeze with the pie crust raw or cooked.

I free them by eating them as quickly as possible

I freeze just the insides and then put them into a pie shell when I want to bake it. However, when I do it that way, I am also buying my pie crust at Trader Joes... or even *gasp* Pillsbury... so that takes away any work.

I freeze them fully assembled, with the pie crust raw.

I freeze the filling in a baggie and then freeze the shell that is going to be used with them, if I have it. I do not make my own crust, though.
