Bread pan

The most common shape of the bread pan is the loaf, or narrow rectangle, a convenient form that enables uniform slicing.

The bread pan is made from a conductive material such as metal which might be treated with a non-stick coating.

It can also be made of heat-resistant glass, ceramic, or a special type of paper that sticks to the dough but is easily removed, once cooked.

Bread pans are found in a variety of designs and sizes providing the baker with different possibilities not only for baking bread, but also cakes and puddings.
