Bread Pans Quick Review
Ceramic:
Pros: Looks fancy. Shape of loaf is pristine
Cons: Bread typically needed to cook longer as it seemed to trap more moisture especially on the bottom of the loaf. Harder to remove bread from pan after baking. Can not see progress while the dough rises (except for top of loaf).
Glass:
Pros: Can visualize the dough as it rises giving you a good idea of how well the crumb will end up. Easier to clean.
Cons: Difficult to remove bread from pan after baking at times.
Metal (Steel):
