Undercover pie.
If clowns have taught us nothing else, it’s that pies can be messy and easy to drop. Enter this covered pie pan: its sturdy aluminum base is fab on its own, but clip on the cover and voila—easy, safe transport for even the loftiest of whipped cream toppings and meringues. You’ll never fear adventurous baking again.

Excellent purchase
I am a veteran pie maker who has used many, many different pie plates for my all-butter crusts. This is the first pie pan that has given me consistent, deeply brown bottom crusts. I have used it twice--once for a cherry pie and once for a blueberry/rhubarb and the bottom crust has been great both times. The size of the pie plate is huge--a major plus for me. The only other metal pie plate I have used was disappointingly small.
My only criticisms are that the plastic dome does not fit well if the pie has a generous crust. Not a major problem for me, but something to know.
Also, my crusts have been sticking to the pie plate more than they ever have before. Again, it's not a big issue but something to note.
Overall, it is an exceptional pie plate and my new go-to. I highly recommend it to all bakers.

I always want to take pies/cakes places, but haven't had a good pan conducive to travel-until now! This lovely pan has a nice domed lid so I can take a single layer cake as well! And the metal is nice and thick-no warping here!
