Can, or should, these pans be used with silicone baking sheets?

Yes, you can use silicone baking sheets with these, but it's definitely not necessary. They're GREAT just as they are - super non-stick and cookies just slide right off, never burned. These are the best baking sheets I've ever owned - love them!

Truthfully, I don't think these are good for all types of muffins. It's a matter of experimentation, and would I'd suggest using the dark sheet, reducing temp to maybe 360 and keeping an eye on them. If that doesn't work, it's probably a case of going back to the metal tins. That's what I'm going to do with some of my recipes. These things are great, but they can't beat the old metal stuff in many cases. Muffins need a lot of heat on them, and silicone doesn't hold heat.

Well...very gently. Probably not a good idea on a regular basis. They are coated with a nonstick surface.

I've used paper before, but never the silicone liners. Might be worth a try. You can also skip the paper liners with muffins--they hold up well without them!

I don't believe they are suitable for baking muffins. I use them to cook eggs to be placed on an English Muffin. Rev. Sims

I don't own one of these, but have owned silicone bakeware in the past, and have had mixed results with it. Silicone is a good insulator of heat, and so you'll likely need to increase the recipe temperature slightly (if it's still in the tolerable range of the material, which I believe is 450 for silicone bakeware, but don't quote me on that.) When you bake with it, like any silicone item, you'll want to place it on a cookie sheet, and use plenty of Baker's Joy or Pam with flour, or grease and flour, as this is NOT non stick by any means. Hope this helps!

I have silicone mats for baking that are safe to 500F in the oven, so if these are indeed silicone I don't think the heat would bother them. It's possible that the glue keeping the silicone attached could come loose, though.

Though, I haven't ever done it, I definitely think you can. These baking sheets are wonderful and they last and last. I bake quite frequently and have been using the same ones I originally ordered for almost 2 years.

I think they would. I use them for home baking, but I bought them because they are good and heavy. And they definitely have heft to them. they're the nicest pans I have, and well worth the price.

I can't imagine why not. You would want to put these on a baking sheet or flat surface to congeal.

I don't know since I haven't used those. Have you tried the silicone version of these with them? If so them I would assume so.

I did not buy them to use for baking. I use them for pulled sugar work, and they are great for that. They are much thinner than Silpat, which I use for baking. However, I would use these for baking, as you pointed out there is no fiberglass in these and nothing to come in contact with your food. So it's an opinion thing. I like both for different things.

I am not sure about baking since I have not done it myself, but I have used them for cooking the perfect round sunny side egg on a non-stick pan. I used pam, so the egg does not stick to the rings. They were perfect for a breakfast bagel, egg, bacon sandwich.

No, I would not recommend baking with these. I don't believe they are durable enough.

I think so...these should work just as well as wax paper in a springform pan. I have a metal Pannettone pan that I use with these.

possibly, I have other silicone bread molds that are good for high temps, I think these would be good also. Have fun cooking brains!

yes they can. I read on out side of box that pans had aluminum in them and thought...oh good grief. These won't work! But they do. They are a little cheap looking but do the job.
