USA Pan Bakeware Nonstick Mini Loaf Pan, 8-Well

Word of caution: You will want to buy every product made by USA Pan. I purchased this to make mini banana bread loaves. It's not the cheapest non-stick solution out there, but if you're looking to avoid toxic teflon, the proprietary silicone-based, non-toxic (BPA, PTFE, PFOA-free) coating used on this pan will make your baking experience a dream. The loaves pop right out with barely a stuck crumb to be seen. In fact, the pan looks like it wasn't even used! Having the right tool for the job is crucial. This pan, as well as others I subsequently purchased (I couldn't help myself), are built like little tanks. The pan has a wide rim with wavy texture, making it so easy to grab from a hot oven, as well as beautiful to behold. Don't even think twice about buying this pan. This kind of quality in bakeware is rare, in my experience. And it's made in the USA!

The metal this is made from is nice and heavy so it's strong and doesn't flex when removing the small loaves. I did not grease the pan and when I emptied the loaves from the pan all it took was a little shake and they fell out easily. I wanted this to make a number of small loaves of bread or cake to share with people and it is perfectly suited to doing that. The finish on the pans is shiny and seems like it will be durable.

USA pans are the absolute best product I have ever used. I will never buy another brand. They make my other pans look like garbage. The key with these pants is not to spray them with anything - just let them sit for a few seconds and the food will fall out when you turn it upside down. I have been using USA for years and I will not use anything else.

This pan is great for making small patties or brownies. It washes up well. It is a good size and feels commercial. I do use a little olive oil spray but nothing sticks. Easy to clean. The picture is turkey patties I make for various meals.

Perfect little loaf pan. It's very sturdy, has endured a lot of batches since I got it with no breakdowns and no drop in performance. It browns everything very evenly, and the surface is SO smooth! Beautiful results, and an intriguing display item if you have shelf space to show it off to other bakers. I gave it 4/5 for ease of cleaning simply because rectangular bakeware is a little tricky, not because of anything wrong with the pan. 10/10 would recommend!

I love USA bake ware pans they produce excellent quality every time!

USA Pan makes my favorite bakeware. I've been slowly replacing all my other baking pans with USA Pan because they bake so nicely and clean up easily. I use this pan to divide up a standard quickbread loaf recipe so I can easily freeze or gift some. It's great. 10/10

These days I'm looking both to save money wherever possible as well as support U.S. industry, & when planning baking fruit bread mini-loaves as gifts decided that a steel pan would be more economical in the long term than paper cups that would only be discarded, & looked for pans manufactured in the U.S. I settled on the above design from USA Pans because I preferred the wells being inset into a panel rather than pans being held together with a strap, which I consider less likely to endure frequent use than the inset design. I'm entirely pleased with my choice, & will look first at USA Pans' products for any future utensil purchases.
