CHEFMADELoaf Pan with Lid, Non-Stick Bakeware Carbon Steel Bread Rectangle Flat Toast with Cover for Baking Bread (Champagne Gold)

I have a bread machine, but I find the loaves it baked end up oddly shaped and a bit difficult to slice, so I decided to try this pan and I’m so pleased with the results!Update: I watched a bread episode of the Great British Baking Show & learned to be really patient while making bread. I now still do most of the work with my bread machine, but now I put the dough in this bread box to rise an additional 30-60 minutes before baking. I think 1lb of dough could be fine using this method. Still love this pan & have made loaves weekly since purchasing._______________________I’ve made 3 loaves of bread so far: 2 were herbs & cheese and the other was pesto bread.PanI opted for the gold pan since it’s heavier than the black pan. Also, some reviews of the black pan stated that the coating flaked off, and while I don’t know how common that is, it’s not something I want to deal with. The gold is more of a rose gold color. There’s holes in the bottom of the pan, but I didn’t have any issues with that. If I were to bake something other than bread in it, I’d probably line it with parchment paper or foil to avoid drips. The pan looks a bit small, but I think it’s a great size since you can fit 2lbs of dough into it!LidThe lid is one of the reasons I got this pan. I love being able to bake a very uniform loaf of bread and the lid makes that possible. It slides on easily and stayed in place while baking. It was easy to remove as well.Loaf SizeI thought I’d read that the pan baked 1lb of dough so that’s what I started with and while it baked up fine, it only filled the pan about 60%. I then made a 1.5lb and a 2lb loaf which both worked, but 2lbs of dough will really fill the pan nicely. One of my photos shows the 1.5lb loaf (pesto bread) next to the 2lb loaf (herbs & cheese) and you can see the 2lb loaf really filled the pan while the 1.5lb loaf has more rounded corners.BakingI baked my loaves at 350 for 35-45 minutes, depending on loaf size.StorageI have a metal bread box, but I also purchased a LOCK & LOCK HPL849 bread storage container for this, which you can see in one of my photos. It’s not quite large enough to fit 2 full loaves, but it will fit at least 1.5 loaves. That bread container fits inside my bread box so I have double storage.Slicing BreadThe 2lb loaf was the easiest to slice since it was denser, but the 3 loaves I’ve made so far all sliced nicely. I was able to easily hand slice the bread into very thin slices, so that was pretty amazing. I’m considering getting a slicing guide so I can cut more consistently sized slices.ConclusionThis pan is amazing. I’ve never been much of a bread maker, but with this pan, I plan on making loaves for us regularly since it’s so easy and I love the results. I’m so pleased with this pan and I recommend it for anyone wanting to make a nice, uniform loaf of bread that’s easy to slice.

Got this to make Japanese milk bread with a rectangular shape, and it was perfect. It is roughly the size of a 1kin Japanese loaf pan so you can follow those recipes and have it come out pretty good. The best thing is the even cooking. I was concerned that the top won't cook at the same rate and will be more/less browned but it's actually perfect.The pan is quite non-stick so the bread comes out very easily. The lid is a bit too slippery so be careful about that. Cleanup is very easy, just washed with warm water and soap. Thinking of getting another one to make two loaves at a time!

After thorough research, I opted for this loaf pan based on recommendations, and it didn't disappoint. The craftsmanship is superb, and the non-stick interior is a dream to work with. It's an essential addition to any baker's arsenal.

Smaller than I thought it would be but works well. Bread turned out nice & crisp when following tips on preparation!

At first I made two gluten free loaves of bread in ordinary loaf tins, (photo on the right) they weren’t well risen and a bit undercooked on the bottom, not good for sandwiches! I bought this tin and the loaf of bread I made is the same recipe, but what a difference! It’s well risen, not doughy on the bottom and a great shape for a gluten free sandwich! In fact it looks so good I had someone ask me what bakery I got the bread from!Love that I can put the lid on the loaf tin to stop the browning whilst the loaf cooks all the way through!The tin is very easy to clean and my dough does not fall through the holes like I thought it might with it being a wet dough.I now enjoy making gluten free bread!

This pan bakes up nice professional looking loaves. I chose not to use the top on my initial bake but I'm excited to try it on the next loaves. I purchased a few jars of Stonewall Jams to give as gifts with a loaf of fresh baked bread! To be on the safe side, avoid leaving them to soak in water.

This is perfect for baking a sandwich loaf. The notes say that it can withstand 450 degrees. I adjusted my baking temp and time for that. Good quality and easy to clean.

Non-stick is a plus when your making bread.

Me encantaron, nunca se pega el pan y son perfectos.

Have only used it for Pullman loaf but it worked wonderfully, perfect even browning and easy to remove!

The item is very good! When I make bread the does not stick to the item and the bread colour is very even!

The best baking pan ever used！Value for money。

Delivered last night and used for first time today. I used a sandwich loaf recipe using 430 grms of bread flour. 57% hydration.First time using a Pullman pan and Im pleasantly surprised. Easy to use and resulted in perfect shaped slices for toast and sandwichesThere are only 2 of us and this 1.5 lb tin size suits perfectly. I can also use it in my smart pro oven, the lid prevents the bread from catching on the oven elements. I love this little tin and wish I had bought one sooner. Tempted to buy another, but all budgeted out for now.Maybe next month.
