2 -3 Personal Points per flauta this number shows the PersonalPoints range. The points will vary based on your individualized plan. Notes Can these be made in advanced and do they freeze well? Yes, they freeze great. You can freeze them prior's to baking- place flautas in a freezer bag and store in your freezer for up to 3 months. These don't need to be thawed prior to cooking. To bake frozen flautas-preheat oven to 425 degrees and bake for 18-20 minutes, until lightly golden and heated through. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in oven at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes or air fry at 400 degrees for 3-5 minutes.
