My recommendations for all the best bakeware and tools for your keto low carb kitchen.
A few months ago, a friend texted me to ask if I had a mini-muffin pan she could use for her son’s birthday. I laughed and texted back “Of course! I have every baking pan known to man!”.
This isn’t strictly true, of course. I am sure there is some bakeware out there that I don’t own. But I do own a lot of it. As in several-cupboards-and-a-large-shelving-unit-in-my-basement-are-full-of-baking-pans.
Because let’s face it, new bakeware is a bit of always a thrill. The majority of it is priced under twenty dollars, even the good non-stick stuff. And buying a new pan in a fun new shape makes your old recipes seem exciting again. Yep, it’s the little things in life.
Good bakeware is worth the money
When it comes to keto baking, the tools you use to bake with are almost as important as your ingredients. You don’t necessarily need the top-of-the-line equipment, but you do need to have some basics. Putting a little thought into what you use can help save time, effort, and the heartache of a baking failure.
Spending a little money now on good non-stick, non-toxic pans is absolutely worth it. Why? Because durable quality bakeware will last well, and you will actually save money in the long rung.
I always recommend USA Pan as the BEST non-stick metal cookware. I have so many of their pans and every time I need to replace an older piece, I buy a USA Pan version.
I’ve had my 9-inch square pan from them over almost 8 years and it’s still going strong. And I bake a lot so that tells you something!
Rather than purchasing a cheapie pan from the dollar store, which will likely end up getting tossed within a year, consider getting good quality bakeware that will last many years.
The best basic baking pans
Round 8-inch or 9-inch cake pans: You need these, preferably 2 of them if you want to make keto layer cakes.
8 x 8 inch square pan:. For keto brownies and bars. They also make great square cakes.
Loaf pan: It’s hard to bake low carb bread if you don’t have a loaf pan. They come in slightly different sizes.
Standard muffin pan: Even as non-stick as these are, I always line them with parchment paper or silicone muffin liners for easy removal.
Rimmed baking sheets: I have a number of sheet pans and cookie sheets, some with the higher sides and some without. The rimmed sheets are the most versatile as they can be used for cookies and for keto sheet cake.
Springform pan: Cheesecake is the ultimate low carb treat. You need a springform pan so you can make a nice big one and release it easily. I love this one from Kaiser because it has a glass bottom, which makes it look great for serving.
The best specialty baking pans
Donut pan: You can’t make donuts without a donut pan! I went through a serious of not-so-great ones until I bit the bullet and purchased the USA pan version. The only downside is that it only has 6 wells and many of my keto donut recipes make 8 to 12!
Bundt pan: Cakes made in a bundt pan just look more elegant. I have several bundt pans, one from William Sonoma that cost more than it should and has funky sharp high peaks. But I recently bought this traditional shaped Cuisinart one and I love it too. The more rounded shape means it’s easier to grease and the glaze settles more evenly.
Tart pan with removable bottom. If you’re going to make lovely large tarts with fluted edges, you need one of these. The removable bottom is brilliant and you don’t risk breaking your lovely crust as you would with stationary tart and pie pans. I also have a set of 6 small tartlet pans with removable bottoms that I love.
Mini cheesecake pans. Perfect for all sorts of mini keto cake recipes. My keto desserts for two are some of my most well-loved and these pans are great for cheesecakes and regular cakes.
Other essential baking equipment
Silicone muffin liners: These are the best for keeping fragile keto muffins and cupcakes intact. They are also great for making keto peanut butter cups and fat bombs. I have both the standard and the mini size.
Parchment Paper. Parchment paper is a low carb baker’s best friend so you should always have some on hand. Low carb, gluten-free baked goods don’t hold together as easily as conventional treats, so parchment allows for quick release from cake pans. It also allows you to roll out low carb cookie and pastry dough without having it stick to your roller!
Parchment paper liners. The next best thing to silicone!
Offset Spatulas. Offset spatulas come in many sizes, but I find this little guy from Ateco the most useful. I use it to spread the tops of my batter in pans, to spread frosting and to get under rolled-out cookies or pastry to gently lift it from the parchment.
Silicone baking mats. These mats are as useful as parchment paper when baking low carb cookies and I use mine often. I only have one…I really need a few more!
That’s it! This is the bakeware that I have and love and that I would highly recommend to other people. I have a few other specialty pans like an ice-cream sandwich pan and a square individual brownie pan, and even a star-shaped whoopie pie pan. Most of these have been given to me and I don’t use them with any sort of frequency. But they are rather fun!

Alicia K says
My favorite are my tart pans!
Cheryl says
I love to bake too and am thankful you have so many great low carb baking recipes! I find the silicone pans are helpful in low carb baking also. I have a mini tart and a muffin pan in silicone.
Christina says
I would love to get a muffin top pan now. I too have passed them by in the store for the same reasons.
Catherine Griffice says
My favorite pan is probably a cookie sheet as I can adapt it to just about any recipe..
Vicky Graham says
Mine too! A cookie sheet is the most versatile.
Lizette says
I would love to try all of them 🙂 but I go with the round cake pans
Shannon says
I like 9″ round cake pans. Simple. Classic.
Kelli says
It’s not a pan, but my fave baking utensil are my silicone muffin liners
Jenell says
for christmas one year my mom gave me oven size cookie sheets…I use them ALL the time and LOVE them!!

Jennifer says
Love your blog! I’ve been re-learning how to cook low carb for the last year and somedays it’s a real challenge!! Thanks for the giveaway! These will help!
Kirsten says
Hi Carolyn,
Thank you for sharing this list.
What are your thoughts on metal vs. glass for baking, such as loaf pans?
Thank you!
Carolyn says
I typically stick with metal. I do have some glass and ceramic bakeware and it’s good stuff, bakes up quite well. But a good non-stick metal coating really helps when dealing with low carb and gluten-free, so I mostly use that.
Jessica says
I’d love to try some low carb donuts for me & the fam!
Julie says
My mini cheesecake pan, which I bought specifically to make your mini maple pumpkin cheesecake recipe.
Lorna S says
My favorite baking pan is the jelly roll/cookie sheet pan. Not only does it adapt to so many recipes, but it also doubles as my kitchen ‘mule’. I use it to move multiple things at once from one place to another (think canning jars to the pantry shelves, condiments to the picnic table, etc). My cookie sheets get a real workout!
Lorna S says
Oh, and I also use them to freeze things flat, i.e., fresh sliced peaches and bagged shredded zucchini. They also work great to catch the mess when I’m decorating cookies, candies and pouring liquid into containers. Great in the oven to catch spills, too. Just can’t live without my cookie sheets!
Marcy says
The muffin top pan would be SO fun! Thanks!
Jody says
I’m kinda with you on the muffin top pan, but now I’m re-thinking it. I can see it being kinda nifty now.
Marion Summers says
Current favorite is wilton jelly roll pan that I use to make cookies. I have been eyeing donut pans for a year and would love to win it! Thanks.
Maggie says
LOVE my 10×15 heavy metal jellyroll pan, bought back in the 1970’s–one of my first baking purchases. Not non-stick, which I prefer. Great for jellrolls, of course, as well as cookies and even beef jerky!
Miranda says
I like my silicone mat, but now I’m interested in making muffin tops.
Denise m says
I love my mini muffin pan to make mini low carb treats and appetizers
Wendy says
I’ve wanted a muffin-top pan for a long time … I think I should start dropping some Christmas hints 🙂
Lynnae says
I love my mini muffin pan. I use it for low carb chocolates.
Lisa says
I am new to the low carb gluten free lifestyle. I have a muffin top pan and it is awesome. I use it to make mini pizzas. Makes a crispier crust when its smaller.
Leslie says
My favorite and most used pan is my stoneware mini jelly pan. It’s perfect for single serving sizes and reheating leftovers in the toaster oven.
The Mom Chef ~ Taking on Magazines One Recipe at a Time says

Carolyn says
Agreed on the parchment!
Teresa says
My current favorite baking pan is my jellyroll pan. I use it all the time.
Ada ~ More Food, Please says
My favorite baking pan would have to be the cookie sheet (with higher sides). It’s what I use most in the kitchen!
What a nice baking pack! So nice of you to sponsor this giveaway 🙂
Kelynnma says
I use my mini muffin pan the most, mostly to make small egg omelettes!
Jacquie Z says
Cookie sheet so far, but I’m sure that will change if I win.
Diana says
Great stuff! I love my waffle stick maker that I use for low carb waffle sticks and low carb breadsticks!
hannah kinley says
I love my Donut pan and Silpat Mat!
Keren says
They make parchment muffin papers??? Awesome! Also? I need to get out more.
Aubrey says
I used to think low carb baking was an oxymoron. Boy was I wrong. I love my springform pans!
Athena R says
I love my bundt cake pan.
Greg says
I love my roommate’s muffin pan…but I don’t have one!
P.J. says
My workhorse pan is my cookie sheet, which gets used for everything from chocolate chip cookies, to roasting green chile and toasting nuts. My favorite fun pan, though, is my mini muffin pan. It’s so dang cute!
Judy says
Love my Pampered Chef 9 X 13 baking pan….It really does a great job of keep the edges from getting too crispy!
Michelle Matos says
My favorite pan is my muffin top pan! I use it for small sandwich rolls, whoopee pies and of course muffin tops! The next most used pan is my cookie sheet with the high edges. I love it!
Tricia says
I use my loaf pan the most, but I’m dying for a donut pan, so for now, that’s my favorite!
Kristin says
Muffin pan!
Talitha says
I’d have to say just a good-quality cookie sheet is my favorite pan to use! It’s so versatile.
Jess S says
I love my glass 9×13 pan. I use it for everything!
Jennifer says
My favorite are my ramekins.
Serena says
I’m with you on having an obscene amount of baking pans. I think my fave ‘uncommon’ pans are the Baker’s Secret Square springform pan (Frequently used to make your magic cookie bars!!) and my individual cheesecake pan (makes 6 small, not mini cheesecakes). I also have about 50 different silicone muffin cups and 24 mini muffin cups (in addition to actual silicone mini muffin pans). I find some dark non-stick pans over brown my almond flour baking and I don’t like that, so I’ve got almost as many silicone pans and forms as I do non-stick/metal.
Carolyn says
Wow, you may out-do me in bakeware!
Beth says
I am such a sucker for bakeware! I never thought of the usefulness of the muffin top pan before. Might have to get one of those! And I didn’t know about the parchment muffin liners. I will definitely have to get some of those!
Alisa says
The donut pan would be awesome to have (as would they all, but that one in particular is hardest to justify as a “necessary” purchase!)
Melissa says
I love my Wilton ghost cake pan.
Christina says
My fav/most used are my cookie sheets–large and small. Could not be without them!
Goldiegal says
I love the muffin top pans. They are so useful.
Mary Winslow says
I love my donut pans!!! On my wish list is a muffin top pan, now!
Melinda @cookingalamel says
I love my 6-inch cake pans. They make the cutest cakes!
Brad says
favorite is springform!
Carolyn says
I have two favorites. One is an ancient round cake pan with a built-in turning arm that scrapes the bottom and sides to loosen the cake so it pops out perfectly. I love it so much I’ve scavenged Goodwills and garage sales to find more. I’m up to 3 now, perfect for our classic 3-layer birthday carrot cake. I also have a combo springform/bundt pan by a German company which I love. The gooey top of a cake is always tastier than the floury bottom, and with the bundt with removable sides I can serve our favorite pumpkin cranberry coffee cake right-side-up instead of flipping it over. Now I just need you to convert them to low-carb.
Carolyn says
Oh, that cake pan with the arm sounds fantastic!
Georgia @ The Comfort of Cooking says
What a fabulous post and giveaway, Carolyn! Thanks for sharing so many of your scrumptious desserts, too. I have to give those pumpkin cheesecakes a go!
Kathy says
Too bad that Amazon.com and Amazon.ca can not co-ordinate to allow Canadians to enter the contests too…I would love to be part of the fun! I just ordered a 5 pound bag of almond flour from .ca so I can make your pumpkin spice cake for tomorrow’s dessert. Even though my children are long past the trick or treat stage, I know they are going to love THIS treat!
Serena says
I know I’m still bitter Honeyville took so long to come to Canada, so I am a little biased. JK Gourmet sells it cheaper than Honeyville, and theirs is also a very fine grind. It’s where I prefer to buy mine. They also offer small discounts for purchases at the 20lb level and up. (Did I buy the 25lbs? Of course I did). I’m pretty fussy, and the JK Gourmet flour is fine enough for cake baking- my relatives had no idea it was a cake made from almond flour, not wheat flour. And they had thirds…
Carolyn says
Great info for the folks in my homeland! 🙂
Ruth says
I have tried so many of your recipes …first one was last fall the maplepumpking mini cheesecake…I used my silicone cupcakes and they worked wonderful… I would love to try something in the donut pan!!!
Smiles, Ruth
Jaclyn Reynolds says
A donut pan!
Brook says
My favorite is a toss up between my glass 9×13, which I use for everything, and my bread loaf pan, because I love the low carb bread I make with it so much! lol
Laurie says
I’ve been wanting to buy a donut pan for a long time, and I’ve never tried parchment muffin liners, but I sure do love regular parchment paper. I use it all the time, not just for baked goods, but for things like baked chicken breasts and roasted vegetables. Nothing sticks!
Jessica w says
My glass pie pan
Jen says
The cookie sheet is the one I use the most
Susan says
I love my Pampered Chef stoneware cookie sheets.

Bonnie says
I don’t know about a favorite as such, but I recently got my first tart pan, and it’s quite a revelation – way cooler than a pie pan! :o)
Cassandra d says
My favorite baking pan is a beautiful molded loaf pan with an autumn pumpkin motif. It was a gift from a family friend. It’s not the easiest to grease but it works beautifully. Most recently used it for Carolyn’s pumpkin-coconut loaf. When I had to cut out sugar and try to go low-carb, I thought I’d never get to use it again! I’m happy to have it back in rotation. Thanks for hosting a generous giveaway!
Christina M says
My favorite baking pan is my mini cheesecake pan, however mine is gradually losing its non-stickability! But it’s by far the funnest pan to use in my kitchen!
Lacey says
I love my silicone mini muffin pan! My toddlers love mini muffins:)
Erica says
how fun!!!! I love getting new kitchen treats!!!
BeckyR. says
My favorite pan would have to be, I suppose, one that I use most frequently. I have two cookie sheets (jelly-roll pans) that I bought from a supplier at our school kitchen. They’re not really anything special, just perfect sizes and lightweight. As for the muffin top pans… I’d have to admit still being in the mindset that you had previously found yourself. I mean, your muffin top still has a bottom, after all – ha ha.
Rachel says
muffin pan
susan says
mini muffin pan
Brandy M. says
I use my 9×13 pans more than any others, but I love my mini-muffin pan for its adorable factor!
Lisa says
I hate to admit it but I’m not much of a cook HOWEVER it’s never too late and I’m a low carber (I know that is not a real word) so I’m VERY interested in low carb recipes as well as the essentials for making them. Wonderful blog, awesome giveaway!
Eric says
I use my tart pans with removable bottoms most frequently, partly because I like the look or a tart more than a pie. Weird, but true.
Carolyn says
Not weird. Tarts with those fluted edges are so much prettier!
Lindsay says
I love my bread pans the most!
Donna says
My favorite baking dish would have to be my pie pans because pie is my favorite dessert!

Maureen says
Love your blog!!! I have made your peanut butter fudge brownies many times! They are always a big hit and no even knows they are low carb!!!
Mona Karel says
I do most all my baking in a countertop convection oven, so my pans are modified down. I have a six mini loaf silicone “pan” Well, I had a six loaf, I cut it down to two three loaf pans so I could use it in my oven. My actual favorite is a 9″ square silicone I can use for cakes or for chickens. I put it on one of the oven’s cooking sheets for stability. I watch for sales and pick up new pans…kind of an obsession
Karen says
I love your blog…thank you!
Elizabeth says
I personally use a lot of silicone bakeware these days. I have trouble with the muffin pan though. Once I get all of the cups filled, it’s very difficult trying to get the pan into the oven because the filled pan has nothing to support it in the middle. Needless to say, I could definitely use some new kitchen items :0)
Mary P says
I really like my Doughmaker cookie sheets. They bake evenly and let cookies brown well.
Arlene says
I love to make cookies, so my favorite would be a cookie sheet

When it comes to gluten-free donuts, funner works for me! 😉

My favorite pans are anything made by USA Pans. Nothing sticks to them. Be careful taking your pizza out of the oven. If you tip it, the pizza will slide right off!!!!
Monica says
My favorite pan is really just my plain ol cookie sheet. I love scones, cookies, macaroons all of which just need a simple cookie sheet.
Jamie K says
I think I will be asking for a donut pan for Christmas 🙂 I have resisted so far, because i have several specialty pans I don’t use that often…but man. Donuts. My favorite baking pan right now is a square muffin pan I have. I use it all the time, because it’s my biggest muffin pan (makes the most, not bigger in muffin size) I have, and people go CUH-RAZY for it. The idea of a square muffin/cupcake seems to make people even happier than the muffin/cupcake itself. LOL.
Bryony Blood says
So far for my favorite baking pan I guess it would be my loaf pan because I love bread loaf shaped things, ha! However, I think my favorite would become a mini muffin pan or mini cheesecake pan (s) if I had them 🙂
Della says
I cannot thank you enough for your work! You make eating fun again for someone with diabetes! Your recipes are amazing :>)
Julie B. says
My favorite is my mini muffin pan, because I like to make mini quiches for potlucks and they always look impressive.
Dani says
I made your black and white muffins and shared them with some non-low carb friends. … they didn’t even know the difference! 🙂
Courtney says
I’d love to try making low carb donuts but kinda nervous about it!!
Holly Ellerton says
I love to bake. I am not sure one is my favorite. They all have a purpose, but if I have to pick one it would be my half-sheet pans.
Lorraine Hofmann says
Thanks for the giveaway. Donut pan looks interesting, for sure.
Laurie says
My favorite is the half sheet pans. I bake everything on them!
Peggy Cole says
I love to bake too, my favorite pan is my springform pan, since going low carb, I use it and muffin pans every week. Would like to try the mini bundt pan, since there’s only two of us, a whole bundt cake is usually too much.
Julieanne says
I always thought the muffin top pans were silly, too, until we started low-carbing. Now I use a muffin top pan to bake “buns” for our Egg McMuffin-style breakfast sandwiches. Num!
Dita says
My favorite pan would be a donut pan. I love your site and your terrific recipes. They help keep me on my LC lifestyle.
Paula says
I have 2 of the cheaper donut pans and after 6 months they are for sure losing their non-stick ability…which ticks me off! 🙂 I have a good spring form and most basic pans. I’d love some better bakeware.
Kimberly Sorensen says
Round cake pans : )
Maria Hicks says
I love my mini muffin pan for making bite size treats, but would LOVE to get a muffin top pan! Think I’ll have to get one now … that is the best part of a muffin! (:
Maureen M. says
I have wanted a muffin top pan and a donut pan for ages! They have been “saved for later” in my Amazon cart for so long. I just haven’t gotten around to buying them yet. I do have mini-cheesecake pans that I love, and use a bunch.
Jackie says
I don’t have a muffin top pan (reason as you mentioned, Carolyn), but my favorite would be the donut pan. Thanks for the opportunity to enter the giveaway. Hope I win!
Jess says
Mini things are so cute, but I love the versatility of my regular size muffin/cupcake pans because I can make more sweet OR savory items 😀
Pam says
I am having difficulty getting the giveaway entry to load. I’ve tried both on my laptop and my tablet, and it won’t seem to load. Any suggestions? I would love the muffin top pan! I have debated buying it too many times!! 😉
KellyJo says
I can’t log on with Facebook but had no problem using email.
Carolyn says
Did it ever work for you? It seems to be working for me!
Nancy Meek says
I have some USA made baking pans I bought with ridges and nothing EVER sticks to them – and they’re not teflon or your typical non-stick surface. I would love to have some mini muffin pans and doughnut pans (which I didn’t know existed until I read this blog). Since eating this way, I’ve learned how important parchment paper is, and would love to get the silicone sheet. I learn so much from your blog! Thank you!
Heather @TheSoulfulSpoon says
Hands down, my favorite pan is always the muffin pan. I love other fun baking pans though. I’ve always felt I needed a donut pan in my life, not sure why. Mini loaf pans are also fun, but the muffin pan is such a classic. I could use a new one since mine is pretty rusty, so thanks for a chance to win this awesome giveaway!!:)
Tina says
The muffin top pan is my favorite by far. Who doesn’t love muffin tops? Except when they are on our bodies of course 🙂
Tracey Quast says
I think the muffin top pan would be fun to try!
Louise DePino says
In the process of learning how to bake sugar free and enjoyed the results!
KellyJo says
I have these pyrex storage containers I use to send food in my husband’s lunch, but they are also great for making Jiffy English Muffins in the mic or baking small serving items in the oven.
Terry says
I love my silicone mat – that and parchment paper – I don’t know what I did without them…………especially when making cookies!
Valerie says
What a great post! I have most of the necessary items, but not all of them!!
Susie McDavid says
Parchment paper! That’s the most essential baking tool in my meager arsenal of baking pans and such. When it comes to cookie baking time, my two cookie sheets become many. 🙂
Hannah Casebolt says
I love muffin pans. You can use them for pretty much everything… even muffins! ; )
Krystle says
MUFFIN TOP PAN! I HAVE AND LOVE MUFFIN TOPS

Leigh Ann Hofferth says
I have yet to try silicone pans. Will try soon! And, I’ve never owned a mini muffin pan! Thanks for the giveaway chance!

silicone individual brownies pan, but the donut one looks awesome!

Corisa says
my bright blue Bundt pan!
Sherrie says
Sorry, my computer has taken over and entered a blank entry….I think :-%
My favorite is any Pampered Chef Stoneware but it’s a toss up as to which one gets used the most. Probably the most versatile would be my 9×15 that used to be called a jelly roll pan.
Thanks for all the great recipes and useful information! You’re the greatest!!!!!
Lynda says
Love using my Polish Pottery. And love your chocolate pecan pie muffins!
Kris in Alaska says

Susan Broughton says
I guess my favorite would be the cookie sheet because it is so versatile.
Cassie says
My most used therefor my favorite would have to be my muffin pans!

Kimberly says
I probably use my mini-muffin tins more than any other baking pan because everyone loves a bite-sized treat.

I’ve never had a muffin top or donut pan. They look like so much fun to try.

Rosie R says

Karen Anthony says
I’m an old fashion girl, I love my cast iron skillets. I use a 10″ to bake krupsula or dutch baby in. I’d made it with almond flour would like to try coconut flour. We top it will blueberries & sliced banana..yummy! Karen Anthony
Donna says
Didn’t know there were parchment muffin liners. Even if I don’t win them (but I REALLY want to) I’ll have to have some. Hate it when half the muffin sticks to the liner.
Kristina says
My favorite pan is a rectangular cake pan.
leesers says
My favorite baking pan is my glass casserole.
Linda says
Would love to have a donut pan! I love my muffin pans and cookie sheets as well as my 9×13 baking pans…

I love my stoneware. I have a pizza stone but really love my larger stone bowl that is the closest thing I have to a Dutch oven and use it for stews and other one pot meals and cook them on low for long periods of time in the oven.
Heather says
My favorite pan is the good ol’ 15×10 jelly roll/baking sheet.
Christy says
Would love to try them all!

My favorite pan of the moment is my brownie pan… I use it to make savory items also!!
Angie Jerde says
I would have to say the basic cookie sheet because it is so versitile. I would love to venture out and discover new ways of baking!
Jill R says
These are the ones on the list that I DO NOT have. Been dying to get a donut pan – “when I have the extra money”… Maybe never. Maybe I should ask Santa! 🙂
Melanie says
I have good luck with my bundt pan! Like my mini muffin pan, too. Would love to try the ones in your giveaway. You’re awesome!

I have a battered old Bundt pan that always makes perfect rum cakes. It’s powder blue on the outside, white on the inside, and it sticks terribly but I love it!
Maria Camacho says
I have a muffin top pan that i use all the time, i love it!
Adrienne @ Whole New Mom says
Hmmm…I like my stoneware.
Mary Bahls says
My favorite is probably a Pyrex 8X8 – a gimme from Mom. I have a good recipe for LC coconut bars that bakes in the microwave in 5 minutes. Perfect!
Debbie Jackson says
My pyrex with lids.
Janet says
I’ve been enjoying my Nor pro donut pans 🙂
gina says
I love Round Tart/Quiche Pan
Sarah says
My favorite baking pan is an 8×8 pan. It’s of course great for desserts, but also great for cooking dinner meant for 2 people. I can easily cook two chicken thighs in it, or maybe a potato casserole!
Cat Burns says
I think I would love the Muffin top pan, I can see a lot of wonderful uses for it.
Debbie Bray says
my mom’s 9″x 12″ aluminum pan

I’m dying to try a donut pan. It would make my family happy campers too!
Sarah says
I love oversized baking sheets and I would love to have a springform pan.
Jan says
My Mom gave me a gift set of four Wilton mini loaf pans and they work great with Carolyn’s wonderful cranberry lime bread. They are heavier than most and the loaves just tumble out and clean up is a breeze.
Rita says
I have to pick one as a favorite? Oh my – I guess I’ll go w/my bundt pan. Got it at a garage sale some 28 years ago and use it all the time! I’m a kitchen ware junkie though and am never finished adding to my stash 🙂
Anna says
You have convinced me now about the muffin top pan. I have some silicone bakeware and liners now and they are great too because everything comes out so easily.
Alexis says
the standard 9×13 baking pan- you can make ANYTHING in those!
jonni says
My favorite is still an old fashion cupcake pan.
Laura E says
I love my jelly roll pans! Do you have any recipes specifically for the muffin tops? I think my daughter would love muffin tops!
Janelle says
Favorite pan is the cookie sheet but I’d love to try a bundt pan. Bundt cakes just look so elegant.
Melissa L. says
I love my mini cupcake pan. The cupcakes it makes are just too cute!
Natasha says
Donut

Katie says
I’ve been wanting a donut pan!!
Jan J. says
I have a brownie pan that cooks little individual squares that I love. I would love that donut pan!
Melanie says
Favorite pan is probably my 9″ cake pan. I line the bottom with parchment and use it for cheesecakes instead of my springform pan so I don’t have to worry about leakage when baking in a water bath. Cheesecake comes out so much better with the water bath!
Stephany says
I love baking lc and gf. I have an obsession with different baking pans and i would love to win these.
chris says
Think the doughnut pan would be great!
EmilyC says
My favorite baking tool is my silicone cupcake liners. They don’t stick and are reusable!

Cheryl V. says
My favorite baking pan is my jelly roll baking sheet. The edges make it versatile.

My favorite would have to be my mini muffin pans. I make everything in them from actual mini muffins, to mini cupcakes, to mini pies (so everyone can truly try every kind of pie without blowing their diets if I decide to make 5 different kinds!), to mini meatloaves.
Dee Fedor says
I love my set of springform pans. Hmm– have not made cheesecake in a while!

Melissa M says
I actually don’t have a favorite baking pan. Looking for a new one!
Dyanne Spease says
The bagel or donut pan!!!
Cindy says
Most useful is probably a large sheet pan, but it’s fun to bake on specialty pans.
Jeri Hastings says
I don’t collect shoes or jewelry or clothes or knickknacks, but I love my kitchen stuff! Having been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in the last year and a half I’ve had to rethink what and how I cook. I love your site. I always “share” with all my diabetic friends. If I’m lucky enough to win, I would be proud to add to my kitchen “essentials”. LOL. Thanks
Jessica Jane says
I love the muffin pan! I use it the most
Susan Hayes says
My favorite bakeware would be the jelly roll style baking sheets I bought from the school’s kitchen back when my mom was a “lunch lady.” They are in constant use and have stood the test of time. For fun I have some silicon snowflake shaped muffin pans.
Sharon B. says
My favorite pan is the muffin top!
Martha says
I use my loaf pans all the time!

shari w. says
great list of bakeware and I do enjoy using my mini cupcake pan for sweet treats!! Thanks for all the good ideas, recipes and of course the wonderful give-aways…
dana says
Since starting this woe, i have accumulated a few new pans including a muffin top, donut, mini muffin, and on its way from amazon is a springform pan as i want to make a cheesecake for christmas.
Dana Duvall says
Ha! About the muffin pan. I bought the very first one I saw many years ago. I have always loved the top of the muffin the most. 🙂 It also stores very easy along with my cookie sheets. I am enjoying your blog!!
Michelle o says
I got a 9×13 silicone baking dish for Christmas this year and I use it every single day. The higher sides make it easy to toss veggies in the middle of the roasting process. Baked bacon never spills its grease. Cakes and casseroles pop out with ease. I hope to switch over to all silicone bakeware little by little
Katie Wilson says
I really like the advice about having parchment paper when you are baking. Having something like this would really help you roll out cookie dough, as you say. My husband and I need some new bakery supplies for our recently remodeled kitchen, so maybe we’ll have to get some parchment paper as well.
