Lodge Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Loaf Pan, PFAS-Free, 8.5 Inches

I recently got this loaf pan and it’s quickly become my go-to for baking bread, meatloaf, and even some sweet loaf cakes. This pan is heavy-duty and pre-seasoned, so it heats evenly and gives that nice crust you want on homemade loaves, and I haven't been using it for that long, but it seems like it will hold up over time. The shape is great, and the dual handles make it easy to get in and out of the oven, considering how heavy it is. The only issue I've had is that cleaning in the corners can be a bit of a hassle—especially if you don’t use parchment or soak it right after baking. Even if you don't use parchment it has a non-stick layer so its easy to release the bread. Overall, it’s a cheap, but good quality version of a classic piece of cookware that’s great if you like homemade breads and want a durable, versatile pan.

This is the best pan that I used for sourdough. I wish that I had bought this in the beginning! It is the perfect size, weight, non-stick pan. Bread pops out after baking. I didn’t need all the extra lifts, parchment, or anything else like I use for my round bread! The weight is perfect as I am in my seventies and it was easy to handle., All you do is rinse it out, dry thoroughly and coat it w oil. Then drop your dough in! I baked it with a steam pan in my oven and it’s the best loaf I’ve ever baked! DO NOT USE SOAP on these pans. There should be at least 10 stars for this pan! Love Lodge!

I've only used it once but so far so good! When I got it I did wash/rinse it out. Then dried it, heated them to get moisture out, then used some avocado oil to season it a bit. They do come pre-seasoned but for sanitary reasons I'll always wash out a dish before using it. I wanted a softer crust so I used one on top of another and only let it brown for a few minutes. The bread popped right out! I do wish they'd create a lid for these, because it is bulky trying to put one on top of another but overall my family went crazy over the bread and it was very nonstick. My concern over time is obviously rusting but I overall like lodge products a lot in general. I love that they're made in the USA. They're high quality, easy to use if you know how to use cast iron, they bake well, eventually they'll be seasoned to my liking as well which makes everything taste even better! My only concern is how little verstile they are but I'm going to see how they do with banana bread! Oh, they are very heavy though.

These pans make the best mini-loaves. Smaller bread for smaller toast and smaller sandwiches. Great for my diet.

Very pleased with my Lodge cast Iron bread loaf pans I ordered 2. This pan makes a 1-1.5 Lbs. (450g-680g) loaf of bread. It is ideal for quick breads, small sourdough loaves, or meatloaf, with a capacity of roughly 6 cups. I use them to make Ezekiel bread from freshly milled flower. Clean like you do any other cast iron cook ware. These pans are much heavier then aluminum pans so keep that in mind. I believe you can purchase lids for them separately so would be good for camping. For the money your getting a quality ready to use item no seasoning needed. You will gift these to your great grand children.

A bit plain in the looks department, but it has a homey charm. A bit smaller in size, perfect for richer loaf/cake types like banana bread

just another lodge

I went through so many reviews of bread pans to find the perfect one. I wanted to get one that wasn't coated in Teflon. I looked into the Caraway pans, but they seemed a bit too pricey. I'm glad I went with this one--I love it! I did worry that the baked bread would stick to it, but so far I have not had any issues. As long as you oil it well. The crust turns out better with this one than it does with my other bread pans. I might by another one so I can do 2 loaves at a time. It is heavy and durable, but since it is cast iron, you do need to maintain it well.

Denna är helt suverän att baka bröd i enligt mig, lite olja på insidan 230grader C och brödet släpper direkt, behöver inte ens diska den

Just season the pan properly and it works like a charm..no sticking and much better than aluminium pan..

El mejor molde para pan que he probado

Just as expected from lodge. Great quality and will last forever. A bit inconvenient to wash by hand and dry thoroughly (just like any cast iron pan) but it’s still worth it knowing there are no chemicals leaching into the food. If you are hesitant just buy it - you won’t regret it

After first wash it became rusty Cannot be used anymore I do not recommend this article
