I don't see why not. Bake the filling ahead, but under-do it a bit,
as it will get cooked more when you add it to the crust.
But wait ....... <thinking> <ouch> Why does it need to be cooked
twice? Why not make the filling and save it, make the crust (raw) and
save it, then at last minute combine and bake?
Or stop at IHOP oin the way there, buy a pie, and remember to remove
the pie from the IHOP box and put it in your own container. (Hey,
before I learned to cook I learned to lie.)
