Would this be considered a dark metal pan which requires a lower baking temp than shiny pans?

i use 350 temp, for baking my bread in both shiny and dark colored pans. and they always come out just fine. no complaints yet!!!!!

The pan is a dark metal, but I use the same temp as for lighter pans and bake until the top of my bread is golden brown and the crust within the pan seems to be just fine.

Yes. The bottom of the pan in shiny stainless steel. The outer pan is hard anodized.

Most definitely. I almost always bake my breads at that temperature. I have not had any problems doing that with this pan. I also use an old cast iron pan in the bottom of the oven that I throw several ice cubes in after putting the bread in and before shutting the door. Good luck and enjoy!

I've only used mine in the oven to keep stuff warm. But ... silicone bakeware (like a loaf pan I use all the time) is suppose to be good up to at least 400 deg. if not more. Can't imagine that this one would be any different. Product description says 460 degrees.

I have been baking many sourdough breads using this pan, with kneading and rises done in a Zojirushi bread maker, and only the final rise in the pan. Michael Petrick is correct, this pan is coated with a layer of silicone, so the metal doesn't come into contact with the dough if maintained well (Don't use metal tools, wood or silicone scrapers etc. won't scratch the coating).

Truthfully, I don't think these are good for all types of muffins. It's a matter of experimentation, and would I'd suggest using the dark sheet, reducing temp to maybe 360 and keeping an eye on them. If that doesn't work, it's probably a case of going back to the metal tins. That's what I'm going to do with some of my recipes. These things are great, but they can't beat the old metal stuff in many cases. Muffins need a lot of heat on them, and silicone doesn't hold heat.

In response to whether the muffin tin is stainless steel or not -- it is shiny like stainless steel. Although it is not as heavy as my other stainless steel cookware, comparatively speaking, muffins do slide out easier than they do from my aluminum muffin tin. I do notice that muffins from my Fox Run muffin tin do not rise as high as those baked in the aluminum tin, even when the dough is from the same batch. Having said all that, I am still please with the Fox Run stainless steel muffin tin.

If the plate is all stainless it should be good to up to 500F. If there is any decoration on the plate of different metals or coverings I wouldn't go over 350 with it to prevent warp-age. It really depends on the quality of the metal, but Stainless shouldn't leach at all in the oven.

I have several of the USA pans and the coating does not come off if you follow the care directions for washing. I don't use a metal utensil either on them. They are excellent pans for baking.

I don't know about this particular brand, but the other silicone baking items I have are rated to 500 degrees Fahrenheit.

Yes, they are shiny. In addition, USA Pans are the best I've ever used - easily cleaned and makes "awesome" baking products.

There is no 'warm' setting. You'd have to use trial-and-error to find what settings (and pans) work for you.

that's what I got it for, lol....not camping. :) it's the same type of metal as those speckled roasting pans....you just don't need the higher heat since it's a dark color....i.e. don't do "HIGH", as "MEDIUM" is plenty hot enough. You can probably get by on less heat for sure.

Darker pans work the best if you are baking, glass pans or bowls work also. Just remember, food doesn't brown in the sun oven.

It doesn't look like Teflon to me. It looks and feels more like powder coated metal. I haven't used the oven for anything gooey, so I don't know how easily it would clean up.

I would not recommend it since it's shiny and beautiful and I would not want to ruin it. Besides it can get hot on the handle if you heat it.

After having this pan for an extended period of time I would say no. It is a great pan but I do not use metal utensils with it just to be safe.
