Lodge Cast Iron Baker's Skillet

It comes naturally seasoned with oil from the factory, so it is ready to use right out of the box. You do not need to perform an initial seasoning process before your first bake.

Yes, this skillet is compatible with all cooktop types, including induction, gas, electric, and glass-top stoves. Its flat base ensures consistent contact for even heat distribution.

The dual handles are specifically designed to provide a more secure grip, which is essential when handling the pan while wearing oven mitts. They make it much easier to maneuver the skillet safely, especially when it is full of heavy ingredients.

To maintain the seasoning and prevent rust, you should hand wash the skillet with warm water and a mild soap if needed. Always dry it thoroughly with a towel or on the stove over low heat, then apply a very light coat of oil before storing.

This size is ideal for deep-dish pizzas, fruit crumbles, cornbread, or large batches of roasted vegetables. Its 2-inch depth provides enough room for ingredients to rise or bubble without spilling over.

While it is not coated with synthetic chemicals like PFOA or PTFE, the natural seasoning creates a reliable, non-stick surface that improves the more you use it. Proper heating and a light layer of oil or butter will ensure your food releases easily.
