Baking Pan Substitutions
Sunday, November 21, 2004; Page R02
In a perfect world, we would all have the particular size pan or pie
plate or baking dish that all recipes require.
It's not a perfect world. The following advice for pan swapping is
from "In the Sweet Kitchen," by Regan Daley (Artisan, 2001): An
acceptable alternative to any pan has an identical volume and falls
within half an inch of the original depth. The baking time may have to
be decreased for shallower pans or extended for deeper ones. To find
the volume of a given pan, fill it with water, then pour the water
into a measuring cup.
Pan dimensions are in inches.

Baking Pan Substitutions
