Has anyone able to safely bake with the 11 cup size under 400F for long period? Most of similar brand are rated for 400F, what is the rating here?

I do not have the 11cup size but I have other pyrex containers and they are all oven proof except the lid--so I think you can use this in the oven for baking safely--without the lid, of course.

I have only baked with it for periods less than an hour and it worked fine.

I would never, (let me repeat) NEVER bake in a conventional oven, with a plastic lid. Not even a lid that suggests it's okay.

I have baked with the various sizes of Pyrex rectangular ware (and circular pie plates) for a long time at high and low temperatures. I don't use the plastic lids or aluminum foil because they both outgas into the food and make me ill. If a lid is needed, I use Corning Ware with glass lids. I wonder if your question is written incorrectly. I don't understand why there would be a question about baking for long periods at a temperature under 400F, but I can understand why someone might wonder if the Pyrex can be used for long baking periods at temperatures over 400F.

I don't remember the manufacturer's recommendation, but we have had our oven at 475`and 500` without any incident whatsoever. Though we have never moved it out of the oven while it is that hot. Hope this helps you out. Patricia

Your experience highlights one major flaw in the marketing of the Fagor 12 quart oven. No detailed information on temperature and other cooking requirements. In all honesty my experience has been through trial and error. Fagor's main competitor in the US is Nuwave. Their oven has much more specific directions on cooking procedures. I would suggest you contact Fagor on their customer support number in the manual and query their food prepartion rep. Sorry I can't help you with more specific information but I can thorougly sympathize with your experience as it mirrors my experiences too. When I do get satisfactory results I note the rack/temperture/time in a notebook that I keep near the oven for future reference. Good luck!

I have used temperatures as high as 425 with no problems. I wouldn't hesitate to use 450 with this pan.

I think amazon must of goofed on saying it was only oven safe to 400. I have had my pan for quite a while and I bake my pizza's at 450 and have never had a problem.

I didn't even know not to do that. I have used it in a convection oven @ 400. it worked fine. I can't say in the future I'll remember not to use at 450. I love the pan. cleanup is a bit cumbersome because of small grates but I use this pan alot. good luck

I don't own one of these, but have owned silicone bakeware in the past, and have had mixed results with it. Silicone is a good insulator of heat, and so you'll likely need to increase the recipe temperature slightly (if it's still in the tolerable range of the material, which I believe is 450 for silicone bakeware, but don't quote me on that.) When you bake with it, like any silicone item, you'll want to place it on a cookie sheet, and use plenty of Baker's Joy or Pam with flour, or grease and flour, as this is NOT non stick by any means. Hope this helps!

Hi, I bake cakes and small tarts, pies in them. Heat resistant to 350. Also, I put them on sheet pans for easier handling.

I haven't tried cookie dough yet although it should be OK since the mold can handle 450/F+ degrees. Choosing the best cookie recipe, considering batter consistency,which should be light, is the major challenge. Added chips,nuts or fruit might cause fracturing when unmolding unless they are ground finely before mixing into batter. Cook times will probably be longer than normal due to silicone's poor browning performance. Eventhough it's a silicone mold, I'd still give it a spritz of non stick Pam. I'll be trying batter when I can free up a mold. Can't get there if you don't try. Good Luck !

So far, works very well; I find if a recipe calls for baking at 350, 325 would do. You could always add an extra 5 minute to baking time, if necessary.

My baking time is about 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees. I also check them by touching the top lightly. If the top springs back, it is done. Another thing that helps me is the smell. About the time they are done the wonderful aroma shifts just a bit and they smell done. That is when I use the touch the top test. Best wishes. I have two of these pans and I really like them.

I baked some Tandori chicken in it at 475 and it left burn marks on the pan that I am unable to remove. So I say keep it below 450.

I have baked at least a dozen times in a 450° and have not had any issues with my over liner. I bought my daughter two for her double ovens and she is happy with the liners also.

Since Cuisinart will not answer this question in their literature, I went to their website. No help there either. I did download their pdf manual and it basically turns their lifetime warranty into a very limited liability.Cuisinart avoids any reference to the use of this pan in an oven.Bottom line. I personally would happily throw this pan into a 350 oven for 7 to 10 minutes. It's a very good pan and logic tells me that this would be fine.The ideal solution would be to pick up a stainless or cast iron pan just to pick op the fond and avoid the bs.

I use it at 400 degrees with a thin crust. I have a Viking , which I find runs a bit high. Always put a sheet of aluminum foil under perforated pan....cheese can drip over sides on to your stove, if you over load! I have two of these pans and would buy them again...nothing sticks to them, very easy clean up.

I'm not sure why amazon has the statement "oven-safe up to 350 degrees F". If you look at the pan on Rachael Ray's website there is no maximum temperature listed. You may be able to call their customer service and ask if you were really concerned. I've used this pan for twice now, both turkeys were cooked at 425 degrees or maybe even 450, and the pan still looks brand new so I think its perfectly fine at 425 degrees.

I've never measured the temperature going into the Pyrex measuring cups that I have. I will say that I have always used my glass measuring cups in the microwave to boil anything that I needed to a boiling point. Just don't use them on the stove top. Regular Pyrex glass bake ware can be used in the oven up to 350 or 400 degrees. Your best bet is to contact Pyrex and ask them for exact temperatures.
