Do you put a spread on the outside of the bread like we would when using a griddle?

I like them for toasted cheese sandwiches. I put mayo and cheese between 2 slices and bread. I drop them in the bag and watch the toaster to make sure they don't burn. The sandwich is light brown and the cheese is melted slightly. Not enough to run out on the bag

I wouldn't recommend using the bags with only 1 piece of bread. You could put spread on one piece and put it in the bag for toasting but I don't have any experience as to how it may turn out.

You can, but you don't need to. I love these because when I go away for the weekend, I can still have toast or grilled cheese like everyone else. At home I usually only use them for toast because I can pull out a clean pan/griddle to use.

I have never used any kind of spray or grease with my pans when I bake yeast bread. The bread literally falls out of the pan! Wipe dry and store carefully with tissue or a pan protector between pans to prevent damage to the coating. I do not put my pans in the dishwasher either. Results may be different with quick breads.

No. I think the correct method would be to just put the stone and bread (wrapped in foil) back in the oven to reheat. Putting the basket and/or towel in the oven might cause a fire.

I would not preslice the bread its made to hold a whole loaf it has a small cutting board inside that the loaf sits on. If you preslice the bread it would probably cause the bread to spoil faster and be more of a hassle opening and closing. Hope this helps

If it is on regular bread most definitely. If it is on a roll I don't think so. The roll will probably get squished a little.

Not at all. In fact, lightly buttering the bread enhances the browning of the bread. Clean-up is easy, too.

Yes. When making 2 loaves, I put them on the outside leaving the middle open.

Sandy W. I have done both, but have to place the rack so that it is lower in the oven, which means you need to watch the bottom of whatever you are cooking. If you are using a shallow baking dish that centers your food quite evenly, everything seems to work fine! Hope this helps!

Not really. If I were to divide the griddle into thirds, the middle third did not cook as quickly as the outer two thirds. I usually try not to cook too much in the middle. Overall, I still like this griddle and would buy it again.

I agree with the answer Lohmeyer posted. For cakes I would butter or spray the pans with pam or some oil spray before putting the batter in.

Use the liners as a pan and stand on a cookie sheet. I bought a pan as well and much preferred the pan to the liners. Did not cook evenly in the liner but was wonderful in the pan.

I use my butter bell for butter only. I would imagine that a spread would work if packed down well like you do with butter. Hope someone else has tried other uses.

We don't use ours but it does look like it you were to use it over time it would scratch the surface. We found it was a hassle to try to put it on. The griddle is really great so this doesn't really bother us to leave it off.

I have done it before w store bought. One time we got store bought fresh bread and got home to find out it wasn't sliced... Wish I could use it with the rolls from the store but that would be tricky.

In order to make a non-stick surface, the griddle needs to be "seasoned". Instructions for 'seasoning' are included with the griddle. When seasoning, it's preferably done on an outdoors grill. To season the griddle, season as you would any cast iron pan. It will smoke while seasoning. Do not scrub the griddle or use soapy water as it will remove the seasoning.

Not exactly sure of the question. The surface is somewhat uneven but it does not affect the cooking aspect for the griddle.

Depends on the pan, Depends on the pan, but in general, yes. If you are making baguets you can buy a pan made fo them &the; spread will just fit the pan. On a stone they will sprad a little.
