Anybody use these? What are the pros and cons? How do you like them?

I know some people love them, but I find them difficult to use. They are wobbly. When you try to put them in the oven filled with liquidy cake batter, you have to be very careful not to spill. Or put them on a cookie sheet to stabilize them.

Silicone is great for spatulas and utensils, not for baking.

 

I use the USA pans. I love them. I recommend them to everyone.

Pizza pan, bread pans, muffin pans, muffin top pans (which I use for rolls and granola cookies) and cake pans....everything I make, comes out perfectly. Not exaggerating!

 

just sayin. (not a paid spokesperson) ^_^

Thank you for the thoughts. I would rather know now before I drop money on something.

 

I love my silicone utensils and oven mitts, but maybe it's not the best material for everything.

 

So far, I'm happy with baking in glass bread pans anyway.

 

Thanks for the link, Irish, I will check that out.

 

I think that for the future, I'm going to keep on looking for alternatives to teflon pans, because it seems like they don't stay nice very long and things start sticking to them quickly and ruining the finish. 

 

Irish, what do you use for a cookie sheet?

IrishHeart Veteran

Honey, I just told you :) ...cookie sheet, jelly roll sheet, springform pan for my cheescake...all USA  ^_^

 

what can I say? I am hooked!

I like those USA pans, too. I have muffin pans, cookie sheets, a round pizza pan - the ridges help crisp up a gluten-free pizza crust.

They are really nice to use if you have something that will stick or is oddly shaped.  A lot of the gluten-free pizza crusts stick like crazy so I could totally see them being helpful.  I had a heart shaped silicone pan that made it really easy to get stuff out of for cakes, cookie hearts, or rice crispie hearts.  Had to toss it with my diagnosis though :(  I also had silicone muffin liners, they stand up on their own so you can pull out however many you need and just sit them on a pan and bake in them.  Most of the silicone pans you do have to put on top of a metal cookie sheet to avert disaster, though.  But they are really good at not browning the edges.

I always use parchment paper. No mess, no sticking and it is cheap at Costco. I use both glass and metal pans. Just lift up those brownies, cool on a baking rack, and slice with a pizza cutter (that has never been in contact with pizza in my case!)

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

      Keep in mind that there are drawbacks to a formal diagnosis, for example more expensive life and private health insurance, as well as possibly needing to disclose it on job applications. Normally I am in favor of the formal diagnosis process, but if you've already figured out that you can't tolerate gluten and will likely stay gluten-free anyway, I wanted to at least mention the possible negative sides of having a formal diagnosis. While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

      Thank you all so much for your advice and thoughts. We ended up having another scope and more bloodwork last week. All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott.  Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?
