The Caraway 1 lb Loaf Pan

This 1 lb loaf pan pairs an aluminized steel core with a ceramic non-stick coating, so quick breads release cleanly and brown evenly. It’s PFAS-, PFOA- and PTFE-free, and oven safe to 550°F.
Built Into Every Bake

Construction That Earns Its Place

Ceramic Non-Stick, PFAS-Free

The ceramic non-stick coating is made without PTFE and PFOA, so food releases with little added fat and nothing unwanted reaches your loaf. Caraway publishes third-party accredited lab testing for its materials.

An Aluminized Steel Core

Aluminized steel holds its shape at high heat and moves heat across the pan evenly, which supports consistent rise and browning in ovens up to 550°F.

Why Bakers Reach For It

Everyday Loaves With Less Cleanup

Clean Loaf Release

The ceramic non-stick surface lets loaves slide out whole, with no stubborn residue left in the corners.

Golden, Even Crusts

The aluminized steel core spreads heat evenly, so breads brown consistently rather than darkening at the edges.

A Lighter Pan To Handle

At 1 lb and 9 inches long, it lifts easily from a hot oven and stores without crowding cabinets.

Made For Regular Baking

Owners report no scratches or wear after many washes, so it keeps releasing cleanly as your baking routine grows.
Where It Fits In

Loaves, Bars And Weeknight Dinners

Weekend Quick Breads At Home

The 1 lb size matches standard quick-bread recipes, and the even-heating core helps banana bread or pumpkin loaf rise and brown without scorching at the corners.

Weeknight Meatloaf Dinners

A single loaf fits the pan neatly, and the non-stick surface means glazes and drippings release instead of baking onto the sides for a faster wash-up.

Gluten-Free And Specialty Baking

Owners report good results with gluten-free and alternative-flour recipes, where even heat and easy release matter most for a delicate crumb structure.

Baking For Guests And Gifting

The pan’s clean lines look at home on the table, so a warm loaf can go from oven to serving without needing a second dish to impress.
How To Use It

Bake Better Loaves

Lightly Prep The Pan

The ceramic surface releases well, so a thin brush of butter or oil is usually all you need before the batter goes in.

Fill About Two-Thirds

For a 1 lb loaf, fill to roughly two-thirds so the batter has room to rise without spilling over the rim as it bakes.

Bake At Oven Temperatures

The pan is oven safe up to 550°F, so it handles standard quick-bread recipes as well as higher-heat browning without warping.

Cool Before Turning Out

Let the loaf rest in the pan for several minutes; the crust sets and the loaf releases in one clean piece when you invert it.

Wash By Hand Gently

Warm soapy water and a soft sponge are enough — abrasive pads can wear the ceramic non-stick surface over time.

Store Without Stacking

Nest the pan loosely or keep it on a rack so nothing scratches the coating between bakes and it’s ready for the next loaf.

Questions Before Your First Loaf

Do I need to use oil or butter with the ceramic non-stick coating?
The ceramic non-stick surface releases well on its own, so most bakers use only a light brush of butter or oil. Adding a thin layer is still fine for sticky batters, glazes or meatloaf, and it helps guarantee a clean turn-out every time.
Any neutral cooking oil works — avocado, canola or grapeseed — applied in a thin, even layer with a brush or paper towel. Butter is fine too; just avoid pooling fat, which can collect along the base and encourage uneven browning.
Hand washing with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge is the gentlest option and keeps the ceramic non-stick surface performing well over time. If you do use a dishwasher, skip abrasive detergents and check the manufacturer’s care guidance first.
It measures 9 inches long, 5 inches wide and 3 inches high, sized for a 1 lb loaf. That fits standard banana bread, pound cake and meatloaf recipes without overfilling, and it’s compact enough to store in most cabinets.
