Lodge Logic Pre-Seasoned Saguaro Cactus Pan Review

Lodge Logic Pre-Seasoned Saguaro Cactus Pan
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My kids love these little cornbread saguaros because they love cornbread, everything about Arizona, and especially these statuesque desert sentinals. I bought the non-seasoned version of this pan last year and I'm still breaking it in, so the corn bread sticks a bit. I'm sure that the new pre-seasoned version will break in faster. Make sure to preheat the mold and grease it before putting in the batter and don't fill them too full. Enjoy!

Southern chefs will tell you that nothing bakes cornbread like a good cast-iron pan, and this Lodge Logic cactus pan is among the best. The vessel features a series of five saguaro cactus impressions, each measuring 4-1/4 inches long and 2-1/2 inches wide. The cactus shapes are clever and precise, with a pair of arms that extend out and up in the traditional saguaro manner. Meanwhile, the batter cooks beautifully thanks to the cast-iron material, which heats slowly but evenly and holds its heat far longer than stainless and aluminum rivals. The resulting cornbread cakes and muffins are cooked to the peak of perfection, with slightly crisp exteriors and moist, flavorful insides. It's the perfect way to add a Southwestern touch to your chili and black-eyed pea recipes.
Unlike traditional cast-iron cookware, Lodge Logic pans come preseasoned through a proprietary "electrostatic" vegetable oil spray system. The preseasoning process readies the bakeware for cooking right out of the box, making it far more convenient than old-style cast-iron pans that required oil and oven seasoning before use. The timesaving process also generates a nonstick finish that helps preserve the bakeware for generations while crafting an attractive heirloom appearance. Lodge recommends hand washing the pan with a stiff brush and hot water for best results. The cactus pan measures 15-1/4 by 1 by 5-3/4 inches (W x H x D) and carries a lifetime warranty.

Nordic Ware Cast Aluminum Mini-Scone Pan Review

Nordic Ware Cast Aluminum Mini-Scone Pan
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This pan is fabulous! I am a huge fan of scones, but never managed to cut them into neat, tidy triangles, so always resorted to patting the dough out into a circle and scoring it. This nifty pan takes care of the triangles. Just put the dough into the 16 triangles, pop the pan in the oven, and bake. The scones come out golden. Turn the pan upside down, give a couple of quick shakes and the scones slide right out. Since buying this pan, I have used it exclusively for my scones.

When first using the Mini-Scone pan, I was concerned the smaller size of the scones would mean a shorter baking time. I baked several recipes in the pan, and the cooking time was not affected.
The only drawback is the pan is not dishwasher safe. Since it is non-stick it cleans quickly with some sudsy water and a rinse.
For some good recipes to use in the Mini-Scone pan try:
Winnie-the-Pooh's Tea Time Cookbook. Full of tasty, little treats for when rumbly tumblys want something sweet.
Scones, Muffins, and Tea Cakes: Breakfast Breads and Teatime Spreads by Heidie H. Cusik. Tons of delicious recipes.
For mystery lovers who love food-
Sticks and Scones by Diane Mott Davidson has some wonderful, rich, and decandent recipes. Make sure there is plenty of butter and cream on hand for making her scones and cakes.

Fat Daddio's 5 5/8 Inch x 3 1/8 Inch Non Stick Commercial Mini Loaf Pan Review

I did not buy this through Amazon, I purchased it locally from a small shop in my town.
At first glance it looks great. Nice heavy metal, smooth non-stick surface, I thought I'd hit the jackpot.
Apparently, not so.
I baked with it ONCE and it (and what I was baking) is completely ruined. I baked a simple loaf of white bread. The SLICKDAD non-stick finish is a total joke. I cared for the pan as directed beforehand, the loaf still stuck, and the SLICKDAD finish came off ON THE LOAF! I tossed the loaf and the pan in one go. I would NOT buy this again, nor would I EVER recommend it for anyone.

I purchased 4 more of these recently just to make sure I can still get them. I couldn't find them at the major warehouse store that I original bought them at. I am still using that original set. They started to get discolored, bread was starting to stick and I thought I would have to toss them out. So, as a last resort I cleaned them with SOS pads. Wow. Like new and it doesn't seem to have harmed them at all. Bread pops right out (I do spray the pans with cooking spray before baking.) The size is perfect for sandwiches which fit in standard size sandwich bags. For those of you with a Bosch - one full bread recipe makes 4 of these loaves.

Pre-seasoned cast iron is great. Followed the directions in a Cooking Light recipe and got wonderful crispy cornsticks. Popped out of the pan easily, no sticking. Preheat the pans in a 425 degree oven for 5 minutes. Remove and immediately coat with cooking spray. Spoon in batter and bake for 18 minutes.

Renowned for its excellent cornbread-baking ability, grandmother’s cast iron skillet has been refashioned into this unique dish explicitly designed for baking cornbread. This pan measures 12 by 5-1/2 by 1 inches and houses seven impressions shaped like ears of corn. Simply make batter according to a favorite recipe and pour into the whimsical vessels. After baking, individual corn-shaped loaves carrying kernel markings are ready to be slathered with butter or served alongside chili. This Lodge cast-iron baking dish--manufactured in America’s sole remaining domestic cast-iron foundry--is unparalleled in durability as well as heat retention and dispersal. A variation on the traditional cast-iron construction, this pan is pre-seasoned with a proprietary vegetable-oil formula baked onto the cooking surface. Pre-seasoning allows for immediate use while preventing rust and creating a nonstick surface for easy food release and simplified cleaning. If cared for properly, this pan will last for generations. Cast iron should be hand washed; avoid using soap or detergent.

Chicago Metallic Commercial II Non-Stick Mini Loaf Pans, Set of 4 Review

Pros: These have made several loaves of bread, and I'm happy with the results. The food browned nicely, cooked evenly, and stack for storage.
Cons: The non-stick coating seems to be rather delicate. I wouldn't recommend using any metal utensils on these - not even a butter knife around the pan to loosen the loaf. I'm even storing them using the cardboard dividers they came with. Also, the sharp corners make for lovely bread loaves, but are not easy to clean. I have to use a toothpick to get out all of the food in the tight corners.

Zojirushi BB-HAC10 Home Bakery 1-Pound-Loaf Programmable Mini Breadmaker Review

Zojirushi BB-HAC10 Home Bakery 1-Pound-Loaf Programmable Mini Breadmaker
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Zojirushi BB-HAC10 breadmaker is terrific for couples, singles, or apartment dwellers wanting a small loaf of bread (1 LB). While at first, its price may be offsetting, it is a fantastic device and made of high quality materials. Most breadmakers are too large and end up being stored in the closet, but this machine is small, sleek, and bakes perfect loaves of bread. It is the same width as my toaster and is small enough to keep out on an apartment kitchen counter. The loaves on regular cycles take between 3:40-3:00 to bake, but it has a timer and a "keep warm" feature. It is quiet and an 8-year old could easily operate its simple push button controls.
It has an even-heating element, and a good quality, heavy, non-stick baking pan, which is a snap to clean up. It has a pasta/cookie dough feature and a jam (!) feature. The tiny paddle is actually surprisingly efficient at making dough for cookies and such.
One caveat: It bakes a small, vertical loaf of bread and a 1 LB loaf is smaller than you think it is. So the "rounded" part on top takes up about 1/4 of the entire loaf. Also, your bottom slice will have a gaping hole where the paddle bakes into it. While this is not much of a problem for a large 2 LB loaf, for this small loaf, it is a bit of a waste.
We have had a Zojirushi since the early 90's and although we found it consistently made excellent bread, it wasn't getting used very often because it was large and the 2LB loaves simply weren't getting eaten. After downsizing, we found that this breadmaker is fabulous because it makes small enough loaves that you can experiment with tons of different recipes and throw away a botched recipe without feeling bad about waste.

For added convenience, the appliance comes equipped with a viewing window, an easy-to-read control panel and LCD screen, and a sturdy handle for simple transport.
