Product Description

Amazon.com Review
Shaped like an apple, this charming lidded oven comes from Le Creuset's Garden Collection. Made in France in the traditional sand-casting method, the rugged cast-iron pan is coated with hard porcelain enamel that resists chipping, staining, and odor absorption. Two handles facilitate safe carrying from the oven to the table, where the dish picturesquely serves apple crumble, baked apples, macaroni-and-cheese, and plenty more. Le Creuset enameled cast iron safely melts butter on the stovetop, browns under the broiler, marinates meats, and freezes leftovers. The phenolic lid knob is oven-safe to 375 degrees F.

With a capacity of 2-1/4 quarts, the apple oven comes in a choice of bright exterior colors, with a more neutral tone on the interior. Rounded contours and the smooth enamel coating mean food particles tend not to stick, making cleaning by hand or in the dishwasher a snap. Enjoy choosing matching or coordinating colors for your Le Creuset baking pans, pie dishes, French ovens, and more. Each is covered by a lifetime limited warranty against defects, whether you bought the item yourself or received it as a gift. --Ann Bieri

5.0 out of 5 stars Whimsy, Fun and Lots of Color, March 15, 2005

By	Gavin S. Pope (Cedar Creek, Michigan (the GREAT State of)) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have collected all of Le Creuset's fruit and vegetable shaped cast iron enameled casseroles. They are beautiful to display on a table or on a kitchen counter and very practical in cooking great casseroles. The color that they can add to a kitchen brightens every vist there. The exterior and interior enamel coating is very durable and easy to clean. I have cooked a multitude of dishes in these casseroles and have found them to be excellent in heat conduction and preventing "hot spots".

The comments of guests served from these casseroles is always positive and never fails to bring a smile to my face.

There is a drawback to these whimsical cookers and that is the rim of both the top and bottom of the casseroles. There is no enamel on these rims and they can rust if not dried immediately after hand washing. They are dishwasher safe but I do recommend that you hand wash and dry immediately. I also recommend that you let them sit out for an hour or so to air dry before storing them.

When wet this casserole can be very slippery and the handles on the bottom and top help in preventing dropping them.

Finally, closely inspect your casserole when it arrives. My first garlic casserole had a two inch crack in the enamel. Amazon.com immediately sent a replacement to me and had the defective item picked up at my home at no charge. I commend them for standing behind the products they sell!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great sized pot for cooking brown rice and grains, August 28, 2007

By	Cindy (USA) - See all my reviews

I bought this pot because I already owned a 3 1/2 quart Le Creuset dutch oven and wanted something smaller for cooking brown rice and steel cut oats. At first I had trouble with the small footprint of the pot--the rice didn't cook in the allotted time--but then realized that if I increased the heat setting a little higher than I had used for the larger sized dutch oven, the rice and oats cooked perfectly. I do have a glass top cook stove so this probably isn't an issue for those of you with gas hobs. The Le Creuset is perfect for cooking brown rice--just the right softness, no sticking, no hot spots, no burning on the bottom. I have tried cooking brown rice in lots of different types of pots, microwaved, and pressure-cooked; I believe that cooking rice in a Le Creuset is the best method. The lid fits perfectly so that no steam escapes and the rice steams gently. Haven't compared it yet to a neuro-fuzzy logic rice cooker but then there are different pros and cons to cooking rice in a rice cooker vs on the stove.
