How much batter is enough to cover the entire pan without spilling out?

It depends largely on the thickness of the batter - largely trial and error!

about a cup. I had a little more than that for my last waffle of the batch, so I put it all in . It oozed out and cooked around the edges of the pan. It was still an easy cleanup, it just peeled off.

I tried it for the first time with a simple baking powder batter and could not fill it with over a cup of batter. I think the yeasted recipe on the package might expand a bit more. I also poured the batter it in the middle, but maybe it makes more sense to try to fill each square individually?

You can mix the batter right in the container. It's wider than the image appears. Very handy and keeps your counter clean. It's quite handy!

If you put too much batter, it does rise and spill to the sides. I'd say it rises by half an inch the most.

Brenda, I love this pan. I use shortening or baking spray to grease and flour each piece I. Use on each side, also grease entire pan and flour it. Then arrange the letter or number you're making in the pan and pour cake batter in. Note: be sure and arrange shapes so that when you flip it over it will be the shape you want. let pan cool for 15 or 20 minutes before removing cubes to prevent sticking.

Hello, I'd say maybe 5-6 oz. max. Suppose depends upon the recipe and how it expands. Make sure you leave plenty of room for batter to raise. I believe I did 1/2 C. give or take an extra dollop of batter. A good sturdy pan.

I can't understand why people insist on NOT answering these questions. The 6" Wilton Excelle Elite Springform Pan is filled about 1 inch deep when you put 2 cups of liquid in it, and about 2 inches deep with 4 cups liquid. Since most batters "poof up" when you bake them, 4 cups (maybe 5 cups???) is probably about as much as you'd want to try to put in this pan.

when I use this pan, If I am making at least a three layer cake then I use the same amount of batter that is typical for 2 9" rounds. However, if you are making just a flat sheet with this cake I recommend double that for a nice full layer of cake. Sorry for late answer, btw. I was unable to get to my computer for a while. Happy baking and best of luck. Here is another tip, for even baking all the way through to center without burning or overcooking edges, use a metal flower nail turned over so that the flat side is down, placed in center of pan, and pour batter gently around it and cook as usual (coat metal flower nail with a little nonstick spray). when I use this pan, If I am making at least a three layer cake then I use the same amount of batter that is typical for 2 9" rounds.

this is a beautiful pan but just a bit small for me - it holds 10 cups of batter....most of my recipes are btw 12-16 cups of batter.....hope this helped!

You can add a tad less water than it asks for, but more importantly, be sure to not over-mix the batter. You should only be doing a couple of turns to the batter.

2/3 cup per muffin hole. the whole pan will hold 6 x 2/3 cup or 12/3 cup or 4 cups total. That is level full.

Lying down and the the directions give you the amount of batter to use. I believe it was about 3 cups. It worked great and is very cute! A nice family tradition that has been in mine for years!

as long as you coat the pan before you put the batter in you should be fine.

I would look on fat daddio's website, they have a whole chart that explains how many cups of batter should be used for each pan and you'll be able to see which one uses half the batter of the 9in.

trial and error to get the amt of cake batter right. I just used a measuring cup to check and it holds APPROX 8 oz of water. but half that in cake batter. In two times using the pans I havent gotten it quite right. once I UNDERfilled, and once I OVERfilled.

I haven't used only half of the pan, but I used two pans for muffins and there wasn't enough to fill up the entire second pan, so there were 3-4 empty spots. That didn't effect the way the muffins cooked or the pan at all, so I am sure only using half of the pan would be fun as well!

Actually this holds 6 1/2 cups. Fat Daddio's website gives batter capacity for their pans under their FAQs tab. Is this for a cake? A 10 cup capacity will take quite a while to bake as this pan takes over an hour to cook a cake to 205 degrees to be done.

The instructions with the recipe I used recommended that you rub the inside of the individual cups with butter. Equally important is to preheat the pan for two minutes before putting the batter in it.
