Would this be good for pot pie?

Absolutely. It is plenty deep enough and distributes heat better than the old corning ware glass pie dishes I've owned.

I would say yes. It's ability to retain a balanced heat throughout the dish would do well for baking a pot pie. I wouldn't hesitate to use it for such. Quiche does well, too.

Either liquid or dry ingredients will work. I have used mine to make pie crust and handmade mayo among many other things. (My old work bowl was so worn, the flour would fly out of it like fine dust! Yuk. But this new replacement works beautifully. Happy cooking!

It probably would but cake flour works best for better taste.Dont use pancake batter.

This is no wider than 4", it could do pie dough and you would have to pinch the pieces together. And for casseroles, small ones yes, and I would recommend the same principle as the pie dough.

I would. It is also nice for canning as you can put 7 pint small mouth jars in this in the rack. I wouldn't use real high heat. When canning in mine I always wash it out and dry it just like any pot I would use so that I could cook in it some day.

Actually yes, but remember they will cook quickly as they will be closer to the baking coils. :D Just watch for browning all the way around thru the viewing window. Can also bake small pies in a pie tin, cook crust first, till lightly brown, then add filling.

Yes, I would say so, it wouldn't be as wide as whole pie but you could put the strips together

I wouldn't buy this specifically for that purpose. i suppose you could make Potatoes au Gratin in this, but I would suggest a baking dish, such as a pyrex or a ceramic baking dish.

Well, my quiches have crust, but I have never tried anything like that. I believe after using this it works best for pies that have crust bottoms and tops. Great for hand held pot pies and fruit filled pies. There is a food truck in our town that sells little pies that look just like these sold as hand held pies!

I think it would work out OK. Smaller utensils in the top and other cooking items in the bottom. Does not roll real well over larger stone pathways. It would not hold your cook pots.

Although you can use it for jams, I would not recommend it. I believe the texture it produces to be more suited toward pie filling. I would recommend using pectin for jam if you feeling you need something that produces very "set up" jam. Usually, I rely on the natural pectins from the fruit to produce a desirable jam consistency.

I have used cast iron for corn bread. And, I have just yesterday I bought apples to make a pie in a cast iron that I'll make tomorrow. So, yes. Why not. Take care with the heat. It ought to cook fast and hot. Let me know how it turns out. If you live in St. Paul invite me over for a slice! Good luck.

I have no idea, it isn't something you would think of using to make a pie crust, but I suppose if you combined it with the right binders it would work.. I'm not sure it would be that satisfactory. I used it as mosltly a suppliment

Yes you can. I googled a recipe for the pie crust and located one. It was actually pretty good.

The tart would be larger than I envision. You can make the pie dough and make sure you don't stretch it putting in in the pan. Flute the edges, prick bottom and sides with a fork, then bake according to pie shell directions. When you go about making pies, you will find the plastic patterns just a bit too small. Cut both top and bottom larger so that the crusts can be sealed before fluting. One pan can satisfy both needs.

Hi. Do you know that this product is made completely out of CARDBOARD? Size-wise, it would hold a pie... but the sheer design of it would not support the weight or temperature of pies... Sorry... but I would NOT recommend it for pies!!!! It works GREAT for construction paper, though!!!!

do not see why not, the pot is big enough....I do not use one for this pot...
