China is where they're made. I didn't realize until after I purchased them at my local Kroger that this was the case. br>Also, don't be fooled by the pan size listed on the package; the dimensions molded into the pan's edge state: 9.5" x 5", 8" x 4", or 5" x 4" 75"x3". What a great idea! br>At least, that's what I thought I bought. I don't usually bring my tape measure with me to the supermarket; So I just took those numbers at face value, and it wasn't until later that I realized the true dimensions from top inside edge to top inside edge: br>The pans marked 9"x5" are actually 9"x5". 5"x5. The 8"x4" pans are actually 8"x4", not 25"br> 5"x4. 5"br>"the 5"br>"the 5"br>"the 5" Pans that measure 75"x3" are actually 5 inches in diameter. 75"x3. Why is there a difference? 125"br> I'm curious as to how they came up with those figures. At the very least, the pans aren't any smaller than I expected, but I'd prefer to have precise measurements. What's the point in molding these into the pan if you're going to make a mistake?
The bottom dimensions of the "8X4" pan I bought are 7 inches wide and 8 inches long. 3/4" in length by 3" in width width: 3/4"
Although the pan is not as dark as some of my other pans, I found that no heat adjustment was required for banana bread, but the decision may come down to personal preference and applications.
It isn't ceramic, but rather a non-stick surface coating.

Because I make a lot of bread, we bought a few of these pans. I've made bread with it twice and meatloaf with it once. The coating has bubbled away from the pan, rendering it useless. This can't be allowed.
br>br>In the other pan, I'm preparing sesame candy. br>br>I'm a big fan of these pans. br>br>A note for Good Cook: Because you say the pan is 8" X 4," you're probably losing sales. The top is 8 1/2" X 4 1/2" in size. br>br>I almost didn't buy this pan because I was looking for pans that were 8 1/2" X 4 1/2". br>br>I first purchased one pan and then placed an order for another.
After cooking a meat loaf, the stick surface has started to peel away. Purchase is not recommended.
My first attempt with this pan worked perfectly on the cooling rack. The smaller size of the pan is ideal, and I'm glad I bought it. It washed up in a flash and I expect it to last a long time.
I recently retired and am experimenting with new things now that I have some free time. One of them is in the process of baking a loaf of bread. br>br>The Krusteaze mix was my first attempt. It worked fine, but the end result was an eight-inch-wide blob with two high-rise layers. This isn't exactly sandwich filling. br>br>As a result, I purchased this loaf pan because it was inexpensive. I wasn't expecting anything more than a disposable pan for five dollars. Imagine my delight when it turned out to be well-received. br>br> well-made and durable On a label stuck to the bottom with some kind of flexible sticky stuff, there were care instructions. They were printed in the tiniest typeface I've ever seen. It has to be a single point or less. That's not going to be read by my 67-year-old eyes. br>br>So I washed it by hand, made another batch of dough with the two-hour rise instructions, dumped it in the loaf pan, and had a nice-looking loaf of bread 24 minutes later. When I removed it from the oven and turned the pan upside down, the bread fell out. There was no sticking, and the inside of the pan looked almost as if it hadn't been used at all. br>br>As a result, I went out and bought the cheapest metal pan I could find. It was well-made and performed flawlessly. br>br>Deserves a five-star rating. br>br>Recent changes: br>br> In this pan, I've already baked seven loaves of bread. It's still in excellent working order. There is no rust or corrosion, and the non-stick surface is easy to clean. There are no signs of thinning or flaking off of the stick coating. That is unbeatable.
I've been using them to bake bread as well as to steam vegetables in the oven. This has been going on for at least eight months. I don't bake with them anymore, and I don't steam with them. These photographs were taken today and will be thrown away. Is it true that I was able to recover my funds from them? No, I do not believe that is true. This is not something that should be happening, in my opinion.
Supurb is the word to describe this pan. The heat transfer is very good. The loaf browns evenly, and when it's done baking, simply tilt the pan to release the loaves with no sticking. Because the corners are rounded, there are no creases for the dough to stick to, resulting in a clean-looking result. It's very simple to get up. You can also grease the pan without missing a spot thanks to the curved edges. In terms of size, it's ideal for bread recipes that call for 7 cups of flour per two loaves. Several of the older recipes are included in this category. It's also great for recipes that call for 5 minutes of cooking time. 6 cups flour for two loaves, but they'll have a flatter profile if you use the 5-cup flour. I use the Good Cook 8X4 inch loaf pans, which hold 6 cups of flour. br>Different things I do: Despite the fact that the label says not to, I lower the oven temperature by 25 degrees due to the dark, non-stick surface. When the bread has adhered to the coating and reached the recommended internal temperature (approx. I also wash all my darker pans or those with non-stick coatings (at 190 degrees) within the time specified in the recipe. Because I apply stick coatings by hand and haven't had these pans for very long, I can't speak to the coating's durability, but I've had no issues with it thus far.
This is a good bread pan, but I needed something a little smaller than the standard 4-inch pan. 1/2 x 8- Medium bread pan, 1/2" thick. Despite the fact that the pan handle is stamped with the size "4 x 8 inch," it actually measures 4-inches long. 1/2 x 8- I returned them because they were 1/2" thicker than the medium pans I already own. br>br>I'd like to find a pan that's halfway between a medium and a mini loaf pan. The minis are too small to be given as gifts, while the mediums (such as this one) are too big.
