Pyrex Easy Grab 9.5" Glass Pie Plate, 2 Pack

Product Information

Some bakers choose ceramic for longer baking pies, so the bottom crust isn't golden before the filling and top crust bake. The manufacturing plant has employed generations of families throughout the Pyrex brand's proud history. 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. Be cautious of cutting your pies while still sitting inside a metal pie pan, especially pans such as the Williams Sonoma’s Gold Pie Pan, as you don’t want to scratch or ruin the nonstick coating. Case in point: After one afternoon of baking, I brought the apple pie I'd made in the Baker's Advantage pan to share at a parent's association meeting at my son's school — and when we sliced into it, everyone marveled that the soft, jammy apples were still warm.

Having used one at home for years, we were always happy with its generous capacity, its consistently excellent browning and its elegant European looks — compliments we heard repeated by many of the experts we surveyed, including Kate McDermott.Indeed, because their clear material lets you see when the bottom crust is firm, browned, and nicely baked, they can be a boon to bakers of all experience levels. 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. We took into account the size and overall design, considering whether it could be used for other recipes or as a serving dish. A distinctly American brand—Pyrex glassware is proudly made in the USA, and has been used by generations of cooks and bakers from coast to coast.

These days many are also coated with nonstick surfaces that, while making for neat and easy slice removal, can be easily scratched by sharp knives and serving spatulas.

For depth, measure from interior edge to interior bottom making sure to lay your ruler against the angled side of the pie pan. More food for thought: Ceramic pie pans are usually more expensive than glass or metal iterations, so they are more of an investment in your future baking. It’s a versatile dish that can also be put to use for individual pasta bakes, gratins or a two-portion crumble.

There’s plenty of advice about how to care for your dish, plus protective packaging for easy storage. We loved the look of this dish, especially the pretty and practical squared-off handles stamped with the Staub name, but found that its smaller size (it fit entirely inside all of our top selections) made it impractical as an all-purpose pick.

We made a successful apple pie, evenly cooked with crisp sides and a nicely cooked pastry base that released easily from the tin. 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.

Metal pie dishes should always be hand washed, especially if they're made of aluminum or have a nonstick surface.

You can make use of this dish for plenty of other recipes, like potato gratin and cottage pie, or as a serving dish for roast potatoes or vegetables. Regardless of the kind of pie pan you currently use, it’s still completely possible to make a deliciously showstopping pie.
