Should I put the "French Bread Pan" on top of a cookie sheet when I put it in the oven?

No. You want the lots of heat and air to evenly circulate over the loaf. If you are making something gooey and it could drip, then I would put a cookie sheet on the shelf below the french bread pan.

I got mine specifically for baking bread. I have used it twice so far. Both times I have preheated both Dutch oven and lid in 410F oven for 20 minutes before adding the bread dough. It still looks as though it has never been used. It is perfect so far. I have not tried to heat empty on stove top, so I can't speak to that.

As long as it fits in the oven, AND has some space around the pan, I have baked it. Unfortunately, have to keep resetting it after the first 30 min are up.

Set the temperature for whatever you're cooking. Parchment paper is meant for the oven.

I believe this item is designed to only go in the oven on a baking sheet. I think direct heat on a burner may melt it.

No, it is most suitable for covering the food left in the pan afterwards not for the oven, it will melt.

Use them as the pan itself. Yes, place them on a cookie sheet. There are many paper pans available out there. The panettone pans come in a few sizes too.

Yes, you may place your baking pans directly on the Ovenliner, so that you don't lose any oven space. - Creative Kitchen

Directly on the oven rack. No need to use a cookie sheet. My wife has baked several cakes, casseroles, etc. w/o any problems. She found the handles to be a great addition. Buy one & enjoy!

You do not bake in the pan. After the final rise, invert the pan over a sheet pan or a heated baking stone, then bake the bread on the sheet pan or baking stone. Some breads have you invert the banneton over a Dutch oven and bake the bread in the Dutch oven covered for the first half of the baking and uncovered for the second half. The banneton gives the bread a very nice spiral shape that will be beautiful when baking is completed.

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 don't believe that is the way it was intended to be used. I have only used it in the regular oven on cookie sheets to bake items.

I'm not sure what you problem might be. I have a convection oven and place my silicone mats on top of my double-layered cookie sheet. The only adjustment I've had to make is to cook the cookies 3-4 min longer than normal. My daughter has a standard oven and hasn't reported any problem with hers. I know that with my old oven I had to buy a thermometer for inside as the electrical power in our neighborhood fluctuated terribly...sometimes 175 degrees hotter and sometimes almost that amount under...

You do not want to cook directly on the liner. If you are unable to put this on the bottom of you oven i would put 1 rack on the lowest setting possible then put the liner on that then on the next rack put your food you are cooking. Another option out be to use a cookie sheet or a silpat

After the stone comes out of the oven, I lay it across the stone and then put the bread on top and wrap it....

Yes, the steam that is trapped inside the dome gives a very nice crust and after the lid is removed for the last 10 minutes of baking, the loaf is nicely browned. You should also slash the top of the loaf before baking to allow for expansion, so the top will have a "cross or X" pattern as all artisan bread does.

The pan works perfect with breads, because the perforation give the dough a nice crunch, but leaving the inside nice and soft that is mainly the purpose of this pan. i don't think it will make a difference if the oven is pre-heated or not the pan will work the same. Now the for any bake good before putting it in the oven you will always need to pre-heat unless you are only heating up something.
