Introduction
When it comes to pie, there are two types of people in this world: those who love eating pie and those who love baking pie. No matter which camp you fall into, there’s no denying that apple pie is a classic dessert that’s enjoyed by many. But how long does this beloved treat last?
Whether you’re serving up a slice of apple pie for dessert or packing it up to take to a friend’s house, it’s important to know how long it will stay fresh. After all, no one wants to bite into a piece of pie only find that the filling has gone bad.
Here’s what you need to know about the shelf life of apple pie and how to store it so that it stays fresh and delicious.
How long does an apple pie last?
Apple pie is a delicious dessert that can be enjoyed all year round. While it is traditionally associated with autumn and winter, it can be enjoyed in any season. However, how long does an apple pie last? Once it is made, how long will it stay fresh?
In the fridge
Assuming your pie has been refrigerated properly (at or below 40 degrees F), it should last 3-4 days. If you have an apple pie that is of the “deep dish” variety, it will only last 2 days due to the higher ratio of filling to crust.
In the freezer
Apple pie will keep in the freezer for up to 2 months. Be sure to wrap it tightly in freezer-safe plastic wrap or aluminum foil, or place it in a freezer-safe bag. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
How can you tell if an apple pie is bad?
You can tell if an apple pie is bad if it has mold on it or if the apples are starting to turn brown. If the pie is only a little bit brown, you can still eat it, but it might not taste as good.
How to store an apple pie
An unbaked pie will last for about 2 days in the fridge. Apple pies are best eaten the day they are made, but will keep for up to 2 days if stored in the fridge. To prevent the pie from drying out, place it in an airtight container or wrap it tightly in cling film.
A baked pie will last for 3-4 days in the fridge. Once baked, apple pies will keep for 3-4 days in the fridge. Again, to prevent the pie from drying out, place it in an airtight container or wrap it tightly in cling film.
Conclusion
Assuming you store your pie properly, it should last:
Apple pie: 4–5 days
So there you have it, your apple pie will last for up to 4–5 days in the fridge. Enjoy!
