would this work for pie crust batter?

It probably would but cake flour works best for better taste.Dont use pancake batter.

Sorry, but I don't know the answer to that, because I've never used it as a pie dish. I've always used it to microwave leftovers, with a cover on top. It'd ideal for anything with sauce or gravy (i.e. spaghetti & meatballs, beef stew, pot roast, corned beef dinner, etc. I can tell you, that it heats up nicely and cleans very easily, as does all Corelle dinnerware. If you baked in the oven, I have to believe it would brown the crust golden brown. Pyrex pie plates do the same, as well as, French White Corning cookware.

Yes, you could use this to make dough, like pie crust, pizza dough, some bread dough, etc. However, it is not like an electric mixer with a dough hook attachment that you could use to knead dough. No food processor really kneads dough, it just mixes it to bring the dough together then you knead it by hand, if/as needed.

I haven't tried it, but it would probably work very well if the size is large enough for your pies. The smallest dimension is 11 5/8" inches. There are silicone pastry mats available here on Amazon though which are the right dimensions and many even have the round pie markings for easy measurement.

I use it for cake batter too. It works.The good cakes need a good receipe though :)

Debra, they should work ok. Just cut your pie crust into circles to fit. Gently press the dough against the sides, to ensure your shape. You could use a cream cheese pie crust and simply press them in place without cutting them into shape. When removed from the units the pies will have a cute scalloped edge, looks like a little flower. Enjoy

YES! Make sure your butter is VERY cold (I put mine in the freezer for awhile) so it doesn't gum up. The HB does a fine job for making pie crust dough.

Unless your crust is dry and brittle, I think it will do just fine. I love mine for cheese and hard-boiled eggs. I've even used it to cut a sandwich in half.

I've never tried it myself, but I don't see why you couldn't. I just used it this morning to roll out a pie crust. Keeps the mess contained and gives you a reference of how big to make it.

I think it would work fine for one of the thinner batters, such as for making funnel cake. The times I've made donuts, they were more of a dough that you roll out and cut. I think it would take a special device to drop out donut dough.

No. These would not work for pies. I have used it for pasta salad or a dip and chips.

Hi. Do you know that this product is made completely out of CARDBOARD? Size-wise, it would hold a pie... but the sheer design of it would not support the weight or temperature of pies... Sorry... but I would NOT recommend it for pies!!!! It works GREAT for construction paper, though!!!!

Yes that should work. It works like a regular baking pan. Check it at 15 to twenty minute intervals to ensure proper cook time.

Sorry, couldn't figure out how to expound on my 'yes' answer. I have used it to make tortillas and flatbreads, so if you are going for a thin crust pizza it should work...not sure how thick you could make it though. Hope that helps!

No, it's for pies that use an upper & lower crust. Fruit or savory type pies. You close the lid for cooking so it would make a mess and probably not cook properly at all without an upper crust.

Probably. It depends on the size of the pie plate. Measure the diameter of the lid of the holder. If it's larger than the diameter of the pie plate, you've got it made.

I am not sure that would work. The batter might seep under the paper because it is not a completely flat bottom .
