Can I freeze this?

How do I make a raisin pie and freeze it? Do I cook it then freeze, or prepare than freeze? Going away for the week and want to leave some treats for my boys in the house. . .

You'll have to try and see for yourself if freezing it works. I would cook it and store it in the refrigerator for a few days.
