Pyrex Easy Grab 9.5" Glass Pie Plate, 2 Pack

Product Information

But while the pan performed ably during the making of our apple pie, its aggressive heat retention led us to nearly burn our pastry during blind baking and made timing the cooking of our custard filling difficult. Our deep apple pie cooked well in this dish – the pastry was crisp on the sides, but a little soggy on the bottom (we’d recommend using it for pies with drier fillings or without a pastry base). When heating oil or butter in the microwave, heat only for the minimal time required—don’t overheat. Of course glassware gets extremely hot in both conventional and microwave ovens, so use protective pot-holders to handle heated glass--don’t ever touch the hot glass with your bare hands, or allow it to come into contact with your body. If you prefer to make individual pies, this perforated 10cm pie tin is ideal (it is also available in an oval shape).

Is there anything worse than putting so much effort into baking a pie, only to cut into it and discover a soggy bottom? A great addition to any kitchen, this clear glass set lets you easily keep an eye on how your cakes, breads, casseroles and more are cooking up. Made from commercial-grade aluminized steel to distribute heat quickly and evenly, we loved the way it produced blind-baked shells that were uniformly golden and lifted cleanly out of the pan without a crumb left behind. Additionally, the stain-resistant glass doesn't retain flavours, so your pies will always taste fresh and delicious.

Metal pie dishes should always be hand washed, especially if they're made of aluminum or have a nonstick surface. Pie dishes vary greatly in style and size and there are plenty of things to consider when choosing the best dish for you. I share trusted baking recipes your friends will LOVE alongside insights into the science of sweets. Using a fluted or ruffled ceramic pie dish is a great option if you’re not confident in your pie crust crimping skills, as the shape of the pie pan naturally helps create a beautiful finish without added work.

We love baking cakes and breads in cast iron and the way the material's intense heat conduction yields wonderful crunchy edges and firm, golden crusts — so we were curious to see how that performance could translate to pie making. With a glass pan, you can monitor the browning of the sides and bottom of the pie crust as the pie bakes. This means it’s safe to use in the oven and it’s safe to go between temperature extremes, such as freezer to oven, without shattering. Uneven heating, direct contact with heating elements, and sudden temperature changes (hot glassware coming in contact with something cool or wet, or cold glassware coming in contact with something very hot) can cause glass to shatter or break. Ideal for pies, cakes, and flans, this is a weighty 21cm dish made from Pyrex’s signature borosilicate glass, best known for its sturdiness.For many more pie-baking tips, check out my Best Ever Pie Crust post and see the pink tip box (above the recipe) for loads of tips, tricks, and information to ensure you bake the perfect pie! Broadly speaking, metal pie tins conduct heat rapidly and very efficiently, which guarantees a well-cooked bottom crust when making filled pies, such as apple or rhubarb, but can lead to overbrowning and other inconsistencies when working with custard-based pies (like pumpkin or buttermilk) whose fillings may require a longer cook time to set. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. While each of these elements certainly can make or break a pie, one less-discussed factor is what you'll bake your pastry in: the pie plate. This is also hygienic and will not absorb stains or odours which makes it great for using at lunch and again at dinner if you need to. Slices of pie came out of the dish cleanly, making serving neat and stress-free, and we never had to worry about scratching the durable surface with sharp knives.One helpful solution Kate McDermott offered: if you must use a disposable pan, bake it inside a glass or ceramic pan — which will aid with even heat distribution and add stability for handling — and remove it only once it has cooled and is ready to serve. Porcelain and ceramic pie dishes double as serving dishes and look nice on the table, but they’re better suited to pies with pastry or potato tops. Our pies came out crisp and evenly golden, with a solid base, no leaks, and a great crust that was pulling away from the sides.
