    Don't freeze it!

    Pretty sure any dough is difficult to freeze, hence frozen pizzas, pies, etc are already partly cooked.

    Doh relies on the ingredients being bound together as tight as possible, but when you freeze it the water molecules expand and break it apart, so it is already falling apart before you defrost it.

    No, you have to cook it before freezing. Defrost it and reheat when you want to eat.
