Does the pan make the crust crispy or how is the consistency of the crust once it is finished cooking?

we've used them a number of times and the crust comes out just fine not too crispy or too soft

If you want a crispy crust I always bake the pizza right on the oven rack and just use the pan to retrieve it from the oven. Hope this helps! I love...love the pan though.

It depends on how long you cook it, the pan cooks very evenly. This is the best pan I have bought by far.

This is my favorite pizza pan, I use bread flower and the crust is nice and crispy when done.

I have the same question, because I have been just using the drip/bake pan that came with the box and it was bowing when I was using the convection oven but eventually came back to normal shape. This worries me that it's not made to withstand the heat. I'll let you know if I find anything.

I bought this for a gift, so i don't know about this one, but I would say that it is smooth, I have a different one and it has measurements & circles on it for rolling out pie crust and it is completely smooth. I bought the one you are looking at for my sister and she just loves it. She rolled dough on it for Pierogies and said she didn't have use flour on it to roll them out

That's just fine. Mine isn't perfect either, but the crust on my bread is perfect every time. Worry not

Yes, it does. It probably makes the best bread I have made. After it has cooked with the lid on and you remove it for a short time before taking it out of the oven, you can control the thickness and softness of the crust

Yes, there is a dough cycle that mixes, kneads and rises but does not bake. I use it all the time for pizza and sticky bun recipes.

You have to do a "standing fluted" or pinched crust with this pan, but it is worth it because it bakes crust beautifully. I get alot of compliments on the crust with this pan. Even with a juicy filling like cherry or peach the crust cooks evenly. No soggy bottom crust. Hope this helps!

I have had no trouble with the dough pan. All my "creations" come out just fine

I would say ,"yes" . Although, I make regular crust, I have loaded the ingredients on and it has felt solid.

As long as you don't scratch thru the coating it won't rush.Being that its a tart pan and your crust should have margarine or butter as a major component it should just wipe clean (mine do)Don't put it in the dishwasher.Good luck.

My pans have not developed a sticky surface so I can't speak from experience but I have read other reviews that say it doesn't seem to affect the quality of use.

I have not used it in the oven. This pan cleans easy,even with very sticky foods made in it like fudge. I am very happy, I purchased this pan.

Smooth. I seasoned it with light covering of canola wiped on with paper towel and baked at 400for an hour. Nothing sticks now and it works great

We re-heat pizza directly on the mat. We also re-heat french fries, onion rings, and just about anything you can think of that needs to stay crispy. No, we do not place a pan under it. It cleans up easily.

No.....I buy the soft shell and gently push it in on the inside. It bakes crispy in the oven in about 3 to 5 minutes.....very good!

If the dough is thick and sticky, it will take a little effort. You must pull the dough off with your fingers. Still love it for incorporating candied fruit into lebkuchen. Otherwise it is easy to clean.

No. If you clean this bake pan as per instructions it will continue to look like new. I love this pan, and intend to purchase another one. Food does not stick to it and it is easy to clean. I do not put it into a dish washer. I recommend that only you use the pan. I let my wife use it and she took a knife to cut her baked item into pieces. This left marks and scratches in my aluminum pan. Aluminum is soft metal and do not use another metal with this pan. Use a wooden or plastic utensil to remove baked food. Now I have a marked pan. I do not let anyone touch my pan. It is too expensive to ruin. But my pan bakes well with it's scratches. The food bakes better with this pan. You will love it.
