I want to use a pan like this for Yorkshire pudding. Is there an upper temperature limit?

This is an excellent pan! I don't know if there is an upper temperature limit; but, for the money, I think it would be worth trying. Good luck!

I'm not sure, Mollyann. I think the pan would be ok, but am not sure about the nonstick coating in that high heat. Try going to the Chef's Design website and put the question in the "contact me" form.

Maximum safe temperature is 450 Deg F. Personally, I've not used mine above 400 Deg, but love the pan! It's also great when reheating left-overs.

350 degrees - I usually try to go under that by 5-10 degrees. Has a non-stick quality and is excellent for dressing which will scorch otherwise.

I have this pan as well as other sizes and exclusively use them on my gas stovetop. The info that comes with the pan says not to overheat it as it could effect the non-stick coating.

I am imagining that you could go 500⁰F as well. I bake mine at 475⁰ without a problem. I recommend this pan, and also the Chicago Metallic Commercial II Non-Stick Perforated Baguette Pan for thinner loaves. Chicago Metallic Commercial II Non-Stick Perforated Baguette Pan

I have not used this particular pan in the oven, but I do have a silicone cake pan which can be used up to 400 degrees. It seems to bake a bit faster so I check on doneness earlier than the recipe calls for.

i have not tried it but, probably would not recommend it. you can check at calphalon.com and maybe they have a max temp setting. good luck

Although I personally have never used it at more than 400 degrees, I know that there should be no problem. Happy cooking!

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 don't know if there is a max temperature limit on these pans, but I roast vegetables using them all the time in the 400-450 degree range with absolutely no problems. They clean up easily with hand washing and look as good as new!! I LOVE these pans and have given a set to everyone in my family!! I do not use any kind of spray oil on them -- applying oil with a paper towel when I desire a little more protection than normal to make cleanup even simpler.

Oh I love this to help me remember how to use this pan! I believe you can broil, and have the heat as high as 500 degrees.

This pan is designed to be used for sauteing, stir frying and single-skillet meals. Along with all the other pieces in the Cuisinart Chef's Classic collection this pan can be used ay any baking temperature up to 500 degrees F. This is an essential pan for every home chef.

I would buy the pan again. I just warn that you must not use heat higher than medium or you will burn your food. This pan conducts heat very well and I am pleased with it.

As long as you aren't using a cover with a plastic knob, your good to go at any temperature. It's the covers with plastic knobs or handles that govern how high the temp can be in the oven. If using the pan, I wouldn't hesitate to have the oven at 450 degrees. If you have a cover with a plastic or acrylic knob, you can replace it with a metal one and have no worries about the oven temperature. Hope this helps.

Yes there is a range of cooking temps. I have not used the highest temp setting as of yet to do any cooking.

I don't see why not. It is all about managing the heat. I would be cautious with overheating the pan with the Teflon coating above 400 degrees but I doubt you would ever need it that hot. This is a great griddle, we use it all the time.
