When my cravings for scones recently went unfulfilled due to some crazy city wide scone shortage conspiracy, I decided to take matters into my own hands and bake my own.

While searching Amazon for a scone cookbook, I stumbled upon this pan. I received it for a Christmas gift and have used it several times since. I love it. The cookbook I use doesn't call for a scone pan but asks you to lay the dough in a circle on a buttered cookie sheet and cut them yourself. Even though this pan is non-stick, while making my first batch I struggled with whether or not I should butter the pan to avoid it sticking. I ended up not buttering the pan and when I realized how sticky the batter was, I was sure I was going to have broken scones. I was wrong.

I can't believe how easy the scones pop out of the pan. They come out so clean the pan looks like it hasn't been used. The pan is heavy duty, it cooks evenly, washes up nicely and I have absolutely no complaints.

I was worried about having to adjust cooking time and temperature as my cookbook recipes didn't call for the pan, but the scones cooked perfectly and needed no adjustments. I couldn't be more pleased with this pan. I look forward to adding the NordicWare 03337 Cast-Aluminum Mini-Scone Pan to my collection. Happy Baking!

I've been using this pan for cornbread for close to a year now, and am very pleased with it. Nice crisp crust, easily released, and easy to clean. What else could you ask for?

I love this pan. I don't use any spray or shortening and the scones slide right out. It evenly browns the scones and is a cinch to clean. A great buy!

I have found a favorite use for this item...make drop biscuits and cook in this pan. They form a nice crispy crust, rise well, and do not stick. Pan also great for scones, corn bread, and cookies. Washes very easily. Wonderful addition to any kitchen!!

I bought this pan and absolutely love it. Takes the work out of making scones.

Any recipe that calls for a 9" pan, just divide the batter/dough evenly within the 8 compartments follow specified cooking time and voilà! Great item, no need to use butter or spray, baked goods slide right out and clean-up is a snap! After keeping this item in my wish list for some time now, I broke down and bought it. I'm Soooo glad I did and only wish I had done so sooner, I made cornbread in it last night and it turned out beautifully!

This pan is absolutely fantastic! I made scones in it last week for the first time and they came out perfectly - just like from a coffeehouse!

Since it is sectioned, you won't have to roll out the dough and cut it up. When making scones, just section and push in your dough. I was a little skeptical about adding no oil considering the dough was VERY sticky, but no problems! The scones came out golden brown on the outside and soft and perfect on the inside AND they practically slid out of the pan! Using butter in the dough is enough to keep it from not sticking!

I would recommend www.joyofbaking.com for some scone recipes or "Simply Scones". Also, if making scones from scratch, make sure to buy a pastry blender - the use of two knives approach in the "Simply Scones" book is messy and much more difficult.

Though I haven't tried it myself, I'm sure baking cookies and other baked good would work very well in this pan.

As to the difference between the Nordic Ware pan vs. the Lodge pan - I saw BOTH in stores. The Lodge pan was substantially cheaper but about FIVE times heavier (if not more). The Nordic Ware pan is more lightweight and the little handle flaps on the side are enough to allow for easy removal from the oven. The Nordic Ware's handles are space-efficient, whereas the Lodge pan's handle might consume more space. I haven't actually tried the Lodge, but if space and weight are an issue for you, I would recommend the Nordic Ware pan.

I love this product. I don't have to roll out dough to make scones anymore; just press the dough directly into the pan. It is a breeze to clean as well. I own 3 of them!

I have purchased this pan, as well as two others as gifts, because I enjoy baking with this, producing great, perfect scones each time. I use a recipe that came with the original Nordic ware pan. This pan bakes evenly, quickly and perfect scones pop out each time. I spray it with Pam or a like spray oil lightly, and the cleanup is quick. Would recommend it for scone bakers.

The scone pan works great. It's light weight and nothing sticks. Great product.
