What makes Nordic Ware’s breakfast pans superior to other brands?
Nordic Ware’s breakfast pans stand out because of their durability, even heat distribution, and thoughtful design. Made from high-quality cast aluminum, they heat quickly and cook evenly, preventing hotspots that can lead to uneven browning. Many of our pancake, waffle, and egg pans also feature unique shapes and patterns, adding a fun touch to your breakfast.
What materials are used to make these baking pans?
Most Nordic Ware breakfast pans are crafted from cast aluminum, known for its lightweight strength and excellent heat conduction (The Crepe Pan is made from aluminized steel). This ensures your pancakes, waffles, and eggs cook evenly every time. The handles are often made from stainless steel or heat-resistant materials for safe and comfortable handling.
Are these breakfast pans nonstick? Do I still need to use oils to prevent sticking?
Yes, Nordic Ware breakfast pans come with a PFOA-free nonstick coating, which helps food release easily and makes cleanup simple. However, for the best results and to prolong the life of the nonstick surface, we recommend lightly greasing the pan with butter, oil, or cooking spray before each use. This also adds flavor and enhances browning.
What is the secret to a good pancake?
A great pancake starts with the right batter consistency—not too thick or too thin. Letting the batter rest for a few minutes helps develop flavor and texture. Preheating the pan over medium heat ensures even cooking, while a lightly greased surface prevents sticking. Flip pancakes when bubbles form and the edges look set—usually after about 2 minutes.
How should I clean and care for these pancake and waffle pans?
To keep your pan in top shape:
Hand wash with warm, soapy water after each use (avoid dishwashers to protect the nonstick coating).
Use a soft sponge or brush—no metal utensils or abrasive cleaners.
If needed, soak the pan briefly to loosen any residue.
Store in a dry place, and avoid stacking heavy items on top to prevent scratches.
With proper care, your Nordic Ware breakfast pan will serve up delicious breakfasts for years to come!
