If I’m going to make ahead of time and freeze do I need to bake it first?
no
Dumb questions. I see “cover to refrigerate for the next day”, but do you cook it covered as well? Thanks!
I don’t cook it covered
Could you half this recipe to make for fewer servings/people!
yes
Could I make this ahead say about noon (refrigerate it unbaked) and then bake it the following morning?
yes
