Notes
How To Store: Cooked apple pies can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. or on the kitchen counter for up to two days if the humidity is low.
Freezer: You can freeze an already-cooked apple pie in an airtight container. It will last for up to six months in the freezer. I do not recommend freezing the unbaked batter.
Thaw it slowly in the refrigerator overnight. We like to eat this apple pie at room temperature.
