I bought one and the muffins stuck badly. What did I do wrong? Grease it? Let it cool for how long before inverting?What???

I have this muffin pan and have been happy with the results. I do use a non- stick spray on the bottom after trying it once without. The muffins release very easily with the spray, I still have to run around the edges with a knife and lift out though. Try it. It is still easy to clean.

Did you try greasing the pan? I brushed a little oil into each cup before adding the batter and they came out perfect. I wonder if the stoneware needs to be seasoned... Kind of like cast iron?

My pan arrived in pieces - also it was not glazed ceramic like I expected so I was not disappointed when it came in broken. I purchased a Longenberger Basket glazed muffin pan and I love it!!

Collette, wash it out and dry it well................fill it almost to the top and bake it in the oven at 325 for a hour or so. let it cool and throw the oil away. Wipe it dry and it should be good to go.

I'd send it back and get a good one. Mine works fine. I wind it up and then put what i'm cooking on it and press down and it rotates until I lift the cooked food off from it and it stops rotating. Yours should work something like this. Good luck. By the way, I have enjoyed using mine. I never had one before, but it's doing the job.

I have not had to grease mine. I love this pan and have used it several time for things other than muffins.

Jack, I didn't notice that effect with the one I'm using, I would guess perhaps the problem migth be happening due to overheat the pan ! Since I bought it I took very serious the recomendation not to heat it too much and not too fast. Hope this help

I don't remember curing them. I washed them. But I'd crease the heck out of them before I would use them again. Last time I used them, with a muffin recipe it didn't go so well.

Muffins rise just like normal. I use them like the paper/tin cake cups (inside the muffin pan) and didn't notice anything different.

Hey...same thing happened to me. Shake it to 'fluff up' the down. Puff it w your hand too. I did that for about 10 min. Mine ended up expanding. Mine is actually too warm for me. I have to run the heat down 4-5 degrees more than I used to.. but then I don't want to get out of bed in the am. Good luck w it...should be fine. Morrison

This happened to me. Use some boos board cream or mineral oil on the whole board and place it upside down. Mine warped back after a few hours.

Try a different recipe or/and let them cook long enough to set before you try to turn them, like you would a pancake

First of all, how are you preparing the eggs? Are they fried, scrambled, or what? Secondly, did you use any sort of cooking spray or oil to coat the pan first? Tell me a little more specifically about what's happening in the cooking process, and I may be able to help you figure out the problem. It may be that the pan is too hot or not hot enough. I'm a chef and have seen a lot of sticky eggs in my day. The more details you can describe about what's going on, the easier it'll be to troubleshoot & determine the source of the problem. :)

I generously grease the pan with Crisco and paper towel- put in oven and bake at 350 for hour and half. turn off oven leave pan in oven till cools off. Been cooking breakfast everyday for three months. Pan is a little stickier now than the first month, but it still wipes out 90% and whats left washes easily with hot soapy water and sponge. js

Thanks for asking this. After 20 minutes of aggravation I'm ready to return this stupid pan. Thanks for letting me know I'm not the only one who had trouble with this.

Fill it past the second tier (level to the start of the third tier upside down of course) the butter flour approach for non stick is better then using non stick spray I tried both and my tiers were more defined and looked better under fondant.. When it comes to backing times I can't recall how long. Try 350 degrees F for 15 min check the center and add on time as you check it so you do not burn it. Let stand outside oven cool for ten mins then place a pan under and flip they should quick release. Sorry about the timing maybe someone else can be more helpful there. Good luck!

Hi MonicaYou probably could reuse them, the muffins I make using these baking cups practically drop right out when turned upside down. They are so much better than the paper ones, and there's a paper one in between each of the foil ones. I would only reuse them for the same recipe....unless you want to wash them! I have used them for refrigerated cold desserts and they work very well for that. I would not use paper ones ever for desserts like that....they would probably stick.

I have never had that happen. If they cracked when you were peircing them, try using a twisting motion. If they cracked after you put them in, was the unit already hot? I put me eggs in cold. I may be guilty of not reading the directions, because I've had other egg cookers.
