Pyrex Easy Grab 9.5" Glass Pie Plate, 2 Pack

Product Information

Are Pyrex Lids Oven Safe?: Pyrex plastic lids are not oven-safe (they will melt in the oven). They’re designed to keep leftovers fresh in the fridge. If you need a cover in the oven, replace Pyrex plastic lids with aluminum foil. Pyrex glass lids that come with the casserole dishes are safe to use in a preheated oven. The final products were admittedly very cute, and fun to share. Three pie plates use about the same amount of filling as one full-sized pie, so all six pie plates would equal about two full-sized pies. Each mini pie served two people who really like pie, but we imagine it could also serve three to four people who just want a bite of pie. Allow Pyrex to come to room temperature before immersing in water or placing in the freezer, refrigerator, microwave or pre-heated oven.

Are Pyrex Glass Mixing Bowls Oven Safe?: Pyrex glass mixing bowls are oven safe up to 425°F as long as the oven is preheated. They are also microwave-safe but can’t be used on the stove or under the broiler. The bowls’ accompanying plastic lids are not oven-safe.A deep-dish pie pan can be anywhere from 1.5 inches to 2 inches deep. The depth of the pie dish is typically related to the diameter, with larger 10-inch pie dishes having a deeper measurement and an 8- or 9-inch pie dish having a slightly shallower measurement. Cast iron might not be the very first thing that comes to mind when considering which pie pan to buy, but it's an option that we found to be worthy. As you might expect from a cast iron pie pan, the style is more rustic, although the gently wavy top edge is a nice touch that makes it feel like it's intended for baking delicate things. Since it's cast iron, it's also a little heavier than other pie pans, weighing a little over 3.5 pounds. But considering several of the other pie plates on this list weigh nearly 3 pounds, we were a little surprised that this option wasn't much heavier.

If you’re shopping for new kitchen items or already own Pyrex glassware and are planning for a new recipe, you might be wondering: Deep-dish pie means you can have more filling in your fruit pie and more meat in your shepherd’s pie with enough room left for a generous topping of mashed potatoes. This pretty deep-dish ceramic pie plate has a cheery blue exterior with creamy white on the inside of the pan and on top of the rim. Not only is this pie plate relatively easy to find, but it also comes at a price that won’t leave a hole in your wallet. It all comes with the reliability of Pyrex’s signature tempered glass, used in their entire line of kitchen and bakeware—from measuring cups and casserole dishes to storage containers and dinnerware.Do not use Pyrex® glassware on the stovetop (open flame, electric burner), under the broiler, in a toaster oven, or on a barbecue grill. This type of usage exposes Pyrex® glassware to potentially damaging direct heat sources. Yes, you can use a pie pan to bake a cake, but you should be aware that pie pans typically have angled sides and cake pans have straight sides. Because of this difference, if you're making a layered cake, the edges of the cake will be harder to frost. The cakes can be trimmed to get rid of the angled edges but may still be difficult to frost. Generally, cake pans should be used for baking cakes, but in a pinch, a pie pan will do if you aren't interested in how good the final product looks.
