I made an almond flour pie crust over the weekend, I baked it then froze it after I realized I had forgotten to order an ingredient for the filling. Now that it's already cooked and frozen, what do I need to do to use the crust? Do I need to thaw it? If so, what's the best way? Or can i just fill it frozen and put in the oven? Here's the link to the pie crust recipe I used. https://www.wholesomeyum.com/recipes/almond-flour-pie-crust-recipe-paleo-low-carb-gluten-free/

    Did you freeze it in a glass pie dish? If so, you need to let it come to room temp first! Unless you like the sound of exploding glass in your oven! ;p

    If it is in metal or transferable to a non-frozen glass dish, I'd just fill and bake! Make sure your oven is preheated and ready to go!

    NEVER EVER PUT FROZEN GLASS/CERAMIC IN A PREHEATED OVEN!!!!!

    Or stone for that matter. With stoneware, you have to use a slow heating method! Often putting your stone pie plate in the cold oven, then taking it out and put your food in/on it (like baking pizza for example). Pie is a bit harder unless the entire pie crust is frozen and easily transferred without burning yourself.
