Baking Pan Choices

There is much debate over how much, or even whether, the material of your baking pans impacts your results. Here is a summary of the basic baking pan choices, along with the darts and laurels of each one.

Ultimately, any pan can be used for any purpose, and the difference between the materials is so minimal that you do not have to adjust the oven temperature or baking time of a recipe. The ingredients in the recipe and the formula of that recipe have a greater impact on how the treats bake than the baking pan itself. For example, a square with a high sugar and fat content is more susceptible to overbrowning than one with less of these ingredients.
