For bread, cake, meatloaf...

The only thing that can top a freshly baked babka? Baking it in this loaf pan. Part of Le Creuset’s Heritage collection, this high-fired stoneware dish distributes the heat oh-so evenly—and has a durable enameled finish that resists chips, stains, and scratches along the way. It’s safe for the oven and broiler, of course, not to mention the freezer, microwave, and dishwasher. Kudos to the flared handles that make taking it to the table a snap.

Le Creuset’s Heritage loaf pan is just the ticket for banana bread, pound cake, bread pudding, and meatloaf. Let’s talk specs:

• Stoneware gives you even heating and browning with no hot spots in sight
• Better heat retention means food stays warmer—or colder!—for longer
• Enameled glaze is non-porous, non-reactive, and scratch-resistant (so stains and flavors won’t stick around)
• Nonstick interior surfaces release food like *that* for breezy cleanup
• Top-notch thermal resistance in temperatures from -9°F to 500°F
• Freezer, oven, microwave, broiler, dishwasher, and metal utensil safe
