@handletheheat: Which pie pan is best - glass, ceramic, disposable, or metal? 👩🏼‍🔬⁠ ⁠ Everything shown here features my Best Ever Pie Crust, blind baked at the same temperature, for the same amount of time. The only difference between each crust is the pie pan it was baked in. The results were CRAZY.⁠ ⁠ 🥧 GLASS: The pie crust baked in the Pyrex glass pie dish wasn’t super sturdy, and felt quite delicate when removed. Glass takes a long time to conduct heat compared to metal, so you may not achieve as much browning on the bottom and sides of your crust. This is exactly what we found with this crust – minimal browning occurred.⁠ ⁠ 🥧 CERAMIC: Although ceramic is not a great conductor of heat, we found this pie browned very nicely on the bottom. Despite the nice browning, this pie crust was still surprisingly delicate.⁠ ⁠ 🥧 DISPOSABLE: This crust leaked the most butter. Much to everyone’s surprise, this pie crust was the most stable / sturdy of all the experiments! This pie crust also browned the most on the bottom.⁠ ⁠ 🥧 METAL: This pie browned a lot less than I expected! Because metals conduct heat more efficiently than glass or ceramic, I anticipated this crust browning well on the bottom. Despite the lack of browning, this was a very sturdy pie crust.⁠ ⁠ Which pie pan do you usually use? 👇🏻⁠ ⁠ Link to the full article is on handletheheat.com (and you'll find links for my recommended pie pans!) ⁠ ⁠ #handletheheat #bakingscience #bakingtips #pierecipes
