    27 Bread Recipes You Can Make in Your 13x9—No Loaf Pan Needed (2024)

    FAQs

    What can I bake bread in without a loaf pan? ›

    Use a Sheet Pan

    Rolls, boules (that's a round loaf of bread), braided loaves and many soda breads are baked right on a sheet pan—no loaf pan required. If you want to bake bread on a cookie sheet, look for breads that retain their shape (you don't want overly soft doughs here).

    What can I use instead of a loaf pan for bread? ›

    A casserole dish is an incredible substitute for baking bread and meatloaf, two things that are commonly cooked in a loaf pan. Casserole dish also has a deep surface, great for mimicking the shape of the loaf pan.

    What are 3 quick breads? ›

    These include muffins, tea loaves, nut breads, corn bread, and coffee cakes. Lastly, the quick bread may be a dough that is dry enough to be kneaded slightly, rolled, and cut into shapes.

    Can you use an 8x8 pan instead of a loaf pan? ›

    8x8” Square Baking Dish

    Quick Conversions: The 8x8” Baking Dish can substitute as a 9” round cake pan, a 9x5 loaf pan, or a deep-dish Pie Dish. Halved recipes intended for 9x13 rectangular baking dishes are also compatible.

    What is a substitute for an 8x4 loaf pan? ›

    Round Pans

    6×2 inch round pan holds 4 cups of batter, the same as an 8×4 inch loaf pan.

    What can I use to bake without baking pan? ›

    Aluminum Foil

    Another alternative to a baking sheet is aluminum foil. Crumple up a piece of aluminum foil and then flatten it out to create a makeshift surface for baking your cookies. Make sure to grease the foil lightly before placing the cookie dough on it to prevent sticking.

    What is the equivalent of a 9x13 baking dish? ›

    An 8” square pan and 9” round pan can be used interchangeably for cake and bar recipes. A recipe written for a 9” x 13” pan can also be made in two 9” round pans; one 9” round and one 8” round, or two 8” round pans. Baking times may vary due to slightly different depths of batter in the various pan combinations.

    Is it better to bake bread in a glass or metal pan? ›

    Since aluminum baking pans conduct heat more quickly and are easier to wash, store, and care for, I prefer them for baking in most circ*mstances. In fact, using glass or even ceramic baking pans for certain recipes, such as brownies or banana bread, may create adverse results!

    Can I use a 9x13 pan instead of 9x9? ›

    *This is dependent on what you're making. If you're making brownies or cookie bars that don't rise very much you can use a 9″ square and a 13 x 9-inch rectangular pan interchangeably. If you're making a cake or something with a looser batter, you cannot use them interchangeably.

    What are the 7 quick bread ingredients? ›

    Quick breads are prepared with flour, eggs, sugar, fats and liquids including milk, buttermilk, or sour cream, and each plays a part in the overall texture and flavor of the finished product. Flour adds structure to the bread but the batter must be mixed minimally so that the gluten structure doesn't develop too much.

    What is the biscuit method? ›

    The biscuit-method, also used for scones, is prepared by sifting together the dry ingredients including flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder, the fat is then cut into the dry ingredients, and the mixture is folded together with the liquid producing a dense yet flakey texture.

    What are the six types of quick bread? ›

    Quick breads include many cakes, brownies and cookies—as well as banana bread, pumpkin bread, beer bread, biscuits, cornbread, muffins, pancakes, scones, and soda bread.

    Can I use a 9x13 instead of two loaf pans? ›

    The solution? A 9×13 baking dish. The batter that fills two loaf pans is perfect for one baking dish. We didn't even need to adjust the cooking time that much; since the baking dish is more shallow, it bakes in about the same time as a loaf pan, even though it's bigger.

    How to make loaf bread without loaf pan? ›

    If you don't have a bread pan, press the two ends closer together, and place the loaf on a greased baking sheet. When baking, the loaf will spread out a bit and create a more oval-shaped loaf. It will have the look of artisan bread or a classic French bread.

    How do you convert 9x13 to 8x8? ›

    Adjusting a Recipe for a Different Pan Size

    The area of a 8x8 pan on the other hand, is 64 square inches, or close to half that of a 9x13 pan. This means you can scale a recipe down from a 9x13 pan to an 8x8 pan by simply halving the recipe. Conversely, to go from a 8x8 pan to a 9x13 pan, you double the recipe.

    What can I use instead of a 1lb loaf tin? ›

    Use alternative tins

    You could arrange the roll shapes you make in a round sandwich cake tin, lined and greased, making sure they're snugly all together. Prove and then bake in the tin to make a great tear and share loaf.

    How do you make a loaf pan with parchment paper? ›

    How to Make a Parchment Paper Liner for a Loaf Pan. Start by flipping your loaf pan upside-down. Then, get a piece of parchment paper that hangs roughly 2 or 3 inches over the base on all sides. Fold the edges of the parchment paper over the ends, as if you were wrapping a gift, folding in the corners.

    What is best to store bread in? ›

    Paper bags are more breathable than plastic, which is great for brioche rolls, soft buns, and other breads with added fat. But too much air will make the bread go stale quickly. Consider keeping these bags airtight as best you can. Then there's the bread box: it balances moisture and air circulation.
