I have not tried to do mini-pies so can not answer; sorry. Using bread and fruit is the closest I have come...it is like a turnover with a mini-pie taste.

I didn't use the pan for flan. I used it for Deep dish fruit pies. But I still wrap it with foil and place it on a jelly roll pan. xoCarole

I bought this as a gift for my Friend. However, I do not have experience baking in this cake pan. My Friend says her cakes come out fine. If it were me, I would probably still cut out a piece of parchment paper the size of the bottom. In the old days with regular aluminum cake pans, people would cut a piece of wax paper and put it at the bottom. So, I don't know what else to tell you other than perhaps go back to the greasing pan and then flour method. I wouldn't grease it heavy though. I wish I could be more helpful.

I have never done this before, but if I did, I think I would lay a small piece of plastic wrap between the pie and the pan. Since the bottom of each space has a removable bottom, I believe it would be easy lifting and no sticking. Plus, you could probably use the plastic again and again. I hope this helps.

Hi sandy, yes it is perfect for apple pies. I bought mine a few months ago and would highly recommend it. I have had no problems at all.

I just made a Pecan Pie using Maple syrup and by unanimous vote it was the best pie we'd ever eaten. I used a cup of maple syrup and a tablespoon of molasses (I used grade A syrup in that recipe). If you used the grade B you wouldn't need to add molasses for more flavor. Try it! You'll like it!

I have not baked a pie on mine, but am very pleased with the quality. I bought mine to use in my countertop convection oven and it has held up very well.

yes, when I made it I used a regular baking pan with no problems. I used cooking spray just to be safe on the pan, though.

Yes and it makes the job very easy. A must have if you like to bake, good value. I would suggest to buy two of the pans because you can make a variety of pies and freeze them.

I sprayed the pan like crazy with the cooking spray that contains flour and oil-Pam makes one, Bakers Joy (?), and William Sonoma has a brand. just spray and spray and spray. I have several kinds of pans and they all come out beautifully...hope I'm not jinxing myself. It took me much longer than I anticipated to frost and decorate the train -but it came out darling! have fun!

I always grease/flour my pan or use Baker's Joy spray. I used a different baking spray once and had awful results. So, I wouldn't risk not using anything.

i haven't had the problem..And I hope I don't!..perhaps try to soak in warm or hot water to loosen possibly stuck flour or dough..let me know what works! HAPPY BAKING!! And I agree with other suggestion of spraying "PAM"on blades prior to baking

I had that trouble too so I rolled out the pizza then put the pie on top of some corn meal right on the counter top. No trouble. Dough slid right off the metal pizza handle thing onto the stone.

I just use a scant 1 tablespoon. This is quite a small mince pie tin, worked great, but used to something a little bit bigger back in England. Ultimately, the finished result was that I had wonderful mince (Robertson's, of course) pies on Christmas eve.

Yes it's easy to clean. I just turn it inside out and submerge it into warm soapy dish water and clean with a sponge. Cleans easily. Then leave it to dry inside out. I love making apple pies and I can't do without this product any longer. Makes pie crust so easy!!!

I've used it over my BBQ and measured the temp with my infrared thermometer at 900 degrees. The pan suffered no damage whatsoever, but the pizza was toast :-D. I've also preheated it in a 550 degree oven and got the pan to reach over 600 degrees dozens of times. No issues of any kind. I've since moved on to 1/2" thick A36 steel for baking pizzas just to get more thermal mass and heat transfer, but cast iron does fine if you know how to work with it.
