They sound more like pasties than pies. :-) Probably the best way
would be to let them thaw, time permitting, and then reheat them in the
200°C (400°F) oven for 15-25 minutes or so (it depends on the pasties
and the oven). If reheating from frozen, it can take up to 45 minutes.
You can also use a microwave, but it usually does nothing for the dough.
Still, consider microwaving one or two pies/pasties and see if you like
the results.
