Refrigerate:

Whole and leftover homemade pumpkin pie should be stored in the refrigerator. Allow the pie to cool completely (approximately 2 hours) and then cover with plastic or place in an airtight container. The pie can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.


Freezing:

It is not recommended to freeze baked pumpkin pies. Freezing can affect the quality of the pie, causing it to become watery when thawed. The filling can become heavy and no longer have a custard-like texture. It would be better to freeze the pie crust and the homemade pumpkin puree separately and then preparing the pie just before it is needed. Thaw pie crust and puree in the refrigerator.
