Use the tin size given in the recipe. Common recipes are written for specific loaf tin capacities, and using a different size can change the bake time.
What can you make in a loaf tin?
Loaf tins can be used for bread, banana bread, loaf cakes, meatloaf, terrines and other sweet or savoury bakes.
Do you need to line a loaf tin?
Many recipes recommend greasing or lining the tin, especially for sticky cakes and breads. Follow the recipe guidance.
Why does bread stick to a loaf tin?
Sticking can result from insufficient greasing, damaged coating or removing the loaf too early. Prepare the tin carefully and follow its care instructions.
Can loaf tins go in the dishwasher?
Some are dishwasher safe, although handwashing may help maintain coated surfaces. Check the individual product guidance.
