A 9-inch ceramic pie dish made from Burgundy clay. The deep sides hold generous fruit fillings and the wide rim provides space for decorative crust edges.

The ceramic distributes heat evenly for crispy bottom crusts without over-browning edges. Safe for oven, microwave, freezer, broiler, and dishwasher.

Usage

For fruit pies, place the dish on a preheated baking sheet to ensure the bottom crust cooks through.

Cleaning

Dishwasher safe. The glaze won’t absorb odors or stains. Avoid sudden temperature changes.
