Savor the sweet and tart goodness of homemade cherry pie, a classic baked delight perfect for any occasion. Properly stored, this fruit-filled pastry can maintain its delicious flavor and texture for optimal enjoyment.
Storage Time
3–4 days in the refrigerator, up to 2–3 months in the freezer.
Temperature
Keep refrigerated at or below 4°C (40°F) once cooled.
Freezing
To freeze homemade cherry pie, ensure it is completely cooled. Wrap the entire pie tightly in plastic wrap, followed by a layer of aluminum foil, or place it in a freezer-safe airtight container. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating in a 175°C (350°F) oven for about 15-20 minutes to restore crispness. Freezing may slightly alter the texture of the crust, making it a bit softer.
Signs of Spoilage
- A sour or fermented smell emanating from the filling.
- Visible mold growth on the crust or filling.
- A slimy or mushy texture in the cherry filling.
