Many years ago, I tore a recipe (out of Family Circle, I think). It was for frozen peach and plum pie, and I have made it many times. In high summer, when the peaches and plums are in season, I prep the fruit, mix with sugar, lemon juice and some thickener (I use tapioca). Recipe makes filling for 3 pies: I just put the filling in foil pie plates, wrap well, and pop them in the freezer. Then in the middle of winter, I make the crust, put in the still-frozen filling, top with a lattice crust, and bake. It tastes just like fresh fruit, and is such a wonderful taste of summer when the snow is on the ground!
