Bakeware
The material of bakeware affects how evenly and quickly it transfers heat from the pan to the food.
Material Attributes Recommendation
Shiny metal bakeware Shiny, aluminum, and non-coated
bakeware is the best for even heating.
It is suitable for all baked goods.
Recommended cooking temperatures and
times are based on shiny metal bakeware.
Dark metal bakeware Dark bakeware cooks hotter than shiny
bakeware.
Reduce the cooking temperature by 25° F
(13-14° C) when using dark bakeware.
Glass bakeware Glass bakeware cooks hotter than
shiny bakeware.
Glass is convenient, as the same piece
of bakeware can be used for cooking,
serving, and storing food.

(13-14° C) when using glass bakeware.
Insulated bakeware Insulated bakeware cooks cooler than
shiny bakeware.

baking in gas ovens.
