OXO Good Grips Non-Stick Pro 1 Lb Loaf Pan

I've long been on the lookout for a good loaf pan. All the pans I had used so far that I purchased from stores kept resulting in overly cooked / hard bottoms and sides. This OXO loaf pan had great reviews and a unique bottom design so decided to give it a shot. I just used my bread pan for the first time to make banana nut bread, and I was ecstatic about how well it came out! The crust had risen and browned perfectly without burning on the sides or bottom. My husband said the bread tasted buttery and delicious. Amazing! Check out the picture to see how my banana nut bread looked after baking and starting to cool on a cooling rack. I was a bit hesitant about the cleaning aspect of it since I saw that another customer complained it being difficult with the bottom design. However, I found it to be easy with a dish scouring (one that's safe for non-stick pans) rag. I can see how it may be more difficult with a regular sponge. There were just a thin layer of bread crumbs on the side and bottom after removing my bread (it plopped right out just by tipping the pan upside down and shaking a bit), and the loaf pan was spotless after cleaning. I'm excited to try more recipes knowing that my burned-bread days are hopefully over. As the instructions say, be sure to keep an eye on cooking progress since this pan cooks more efficiently and evenly. To summarize, buy this pan!

Because of family health issues we make our bread from freshly ground wheat & have done for decades now, using several different types of loaf pans in that time: glass, plain metal, nonstick metal. Hands down, the OXO Pro gold loaf pan beats them all for producing consistent & quite beautifully browned bakes, easily removed from the pan, for both yeasted & quick breads. It is also a much better buy than the Williams & Sonoma gold baking pans, priced as if they're made of actual gold. I'm buying more of the OXO Pro line & donating my current loaf pan hoard to charity. The pan cooks more quickly than glass of course, but also more quickly than my other metal pans so check your bakes early & often for doneness until you get a feel for it. The pattern on the bottom doesn't deform the bake at all & as with all good cooking tools I hand wash this: dishwasher detergent is extremely harsh & over time always degrades aluminum & silicone products, cuz, chemistry, y'know? Overall I highly recommend this loaf pan to any baker. Handwashing is a small price to pay for a quality kitchen tool you can rely on.

Great bread pan , nice weight and bakes bread evenly!

This pan works very well and nothing sticks. For those who love to bake breads who would strongly recommend it.

Glad I got them. Am careful not to scratch them. Got what I paid for.

Spouse loves and uses often.

In this review, I'll compare the KitchenAid and OXO loaf pans. I have yet to bake with either. The KitchenAid was around $13. The lip is much larger and extends maybe half an inch on the ends. It's an aluminum coated steel pan. I'm thinking the coating isn't the natural color, so some kind of coloring/paint was probably added to give it the silvery gray color. I'm just guessing there. The lip edges are rolled under for increased structural strength. This seems to be a common design. I feel like it could trap water. I noticed a couple notches cut into the rolled piece on the underside of the ends. I wonder if this is to help moisture air out. A side effect is these notches will catch soft sponges/cleaning materials which is a touch annoying. The OXO was around $21. I have a feeling this pan is noticeable smaller than most loaf pans in the 9x5 range. The difference between the KitchenAid and OXO is pretty obvious. The bottom of the OXO pan is ridged, which supposedly allows for more even baking. I'm a little concerned about all the extra edges when it comes to the coating's longevity, but the pan feels well made. Only time will tell how the ceramic coating does. The coating seems to have goldish beige coloring in the mix. The lip edges are also rolled under, but it's shaped into more of a square. I think I like the design of the lip edges better on the OXO. The only downside might be that it's harder to grab than the KitchenAid. I think it'll be fine with the lip giving something to catch onto when holding the sides of the pan. Both pans feel pretty solid. Washing each is easy, and water beads up on the nonstick surfaces. I'm expecting each surface to do pretty well in releasing food. The KitchenAid is definitely larger than the OXO. Had I received both in perfect condition, I'm not sure I'd be willing to pay the extra for the OXO. Maybe after some baking I'll find something I like. I wanted to put this review out before even getting to the baking because of how much of a pain it's been trying to get a pair of KitchenAid pans. I received 4 pans and only ended up keeping 1. The first pan had a scratch in the nonstick coating, so I returned it. The second pan had a small dent but no other noticeable defects. I kept that one. The third pan had a larger scratch in the coating. I returned it. The fourth pan was okay on the inside, but it came with a scuff on the outside, some kind of oily stain, and 4 dents. After Amazon's web app rejected another replacement order, I just returned it and gave up on KitchenAid. The first pan I ordered from OXO has a small scuff on the outside of the pan, but there are no other noticeable defects. So to be done with the quality control roulette game, I'm willing to pay the increased price for the OXO. Now that I've got one of each, I'll get to see how the designs affect baking and cleaning down the road.

OXO Good Grips Non-Stick Pro 1 Lb. Loaf Pan There are many positive reviews about this pan when baking in a regular oven, but I do all my cooking, including baking bread, in an Air Fryer. That changes ever thing. Unlike a conventional oven, an air fryer heats from the top and circulated air from the top. Normally the circulated air is in direct contact with the food. When you put the food in a pan like this loaf pan, that modifies the environment so that the sides and bottom of the food are heated by conduction from the heated pan. That causes a condition where the top browns quickly and the sides and bottom brown slowly – a classic air fryer problem. This pan solves that problem because it is made of aluminized steel which has a better heat transfer rate than bare steel or any other normal baking pan material. This all means that this pan makes great bread in the air fryer. Five stars!

lorsque j'ai ouvert la boite avec le moule j'ai remarqué que le moule n'était pas conforme à la description de vente, dans ce moule il est presque impossible de faire un pain de 1 kg, j'ai fait l'esses avec un cramique de 300 gr c'est parfait je crois que 500 gr serai aussi possible. le moule est très bien et très solide c'est un peu cher pour sa fonctionnalité. Vous pouvez l'achetez mais pas pour un pain de 1kg.

Me gusto mucho este molde es de muy buena calidad grueso y bastante resistente , ya lo probe haciendo un pan que quedo muy bien . Recomiendo bastante este producto

These are the best loaf pans I have used for sourdough bread. In the past, I have preferred Pyrex glass loaf pans, and I tried stoneware for a while, but these are the best I've used. They are non-stick, but I still use a thin layer of butter or oil before baking. I use them to make sourdough sandwich bread. I purchased two, and I use one pan as a lid for the first 20 minutes and then remove the lid for the second 20 minutes. It works perfectly. Even browning and light crust.

Love the non stick capability of this tin, this feels sturdy and durable I have found that this cooks things nice and evenly all in all a good product and worth the price in my opinion I think this is a great loaf tin👍

Great Product and good quality
