Hi everyone,

I was surfing the internet for baking and casserole pan substitutions and
found the following.  (I was trying to find a different pan size for a
casserole I wanted to make). Maybe some of you will find it useful.

It was supposed to be in table form, but when I copied and pasted it into
word it didn’t work. The semicolons are the column divides.

SUBSTITUTIONS FOR BAKING PAN SIZES
CASSEROLE DISH AND PAN SUBSTITUTIONS



In the midst of cooking but don’t have the right baking pan size? You can
substitute one size for another, keeping in mind that when you change the
pan size, you must sometimes change the cooking time.



DIFFERENCES IN COOKING TIME



Always be sure to account for differences in pan sizes when considering
cooking time. For example, if a recipe calls for using an 8–inch round cake
pan and baking for 25 minutes, and you substitute a 9–inch pan, the cake may
bake in only 20 minutes, since the batter forms a thinner layer in the
larger pan. (Use a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake to test
for doneness. If it comes out clean, the cake has finished baking.)



Also, specialty pans such as tube and Bundt pans distribute heat
differently; you may not get the same results if you substitute a regular
cake pan for a specialty one, even if the volume is the same.

CASSEROLE DISH SUBSTITUTIONS



If you are cooking a casserole and don’t have the correct size dish, here

ingredients in the dish and lengthen or shorten the baking time accordingly.
