Know before you buy
No, this pan is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the non-stick coating and the integrity of the aluminum, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water.
The pan features six cavities, allowing you to bake six standard-sized donuts in a single batch.
While the pan features a non-stick coating, it is still best practice to lightly grease or spray the cavities before adding your batter to ensure the donuts release perfectly every time.
This model uses a PTFE-based non-stick coating, which is designed to provide a smooth surface for easy food release and simplified cleanup.
Heavy-duty aluminum is an excellent conductor of heat, which ensures your donuts bake evenly and develop a consistent golden-brown color across the entire batch.
