Half Sheet Pans
These are the kitchen workhorse! I love, love, love these and give them as gifts all the time. They are sturdy, easy to clean, and versatile. I use mine in place of cookie sheets. I use them to make sheet pan meals, roast vegetables and fries, bake big batch brownies or sheet cake, and spatchcock chicken, among other things. Unlike cookie sheets, these pans are thick and heavy duty and won’t warp in the oven. Nordic Ware are my favorite brand and I get the pack of two for $29.99. They’re made in the USA. Hand wash these!
- Lifetime durability: Made from pure natural aluminum, offering rust resistance and ideal for baking cookies to sheet pan dinners with consistent results.
- Superior heat conductivity: Aluminum ensures even baking and browning, while the reinforced encapsulated steel rim adds strength and prevents warping.
- Compatible versatility: Use with parchment paper or silicone baking mats for hassle-free cleaning; hand wash recommended for effortless maintenance.
- Pan exterior dimentions 17.9 x 12.9 x 1 inches and interior 17.1 x 12.1 x 1 inches, perfect for versatile use in various recipes.

9×13 Pan Metal Baking Pan
Every kitchen needs the 9×13 Pan. The USA Pan Rectangular Cake Pan, 9 x 13 inch is nonstick with a quick release coating, and is made in the USA from aluminized steel. It has straight side and helps baked goods cook and rise evenly. Use it for pan cookies, brownies, and sheet cakes, which you should never bake in glass baking pans. Glass takes a long time to heat and once it’s to temperature, retains the heat which makes for hard edges and undercooked centers.
- USA Pan baking pans feature Americoat which promotes quick release of baked-goods plus fast and easy clean up; wash with hot water, mild soap and gentle scrub brush or sponge
- Nonstick Americoat coating – a patented silicone coating which is PTFE, PFOA and BPA free – provides quick and easy release of all baked-goods and minimal easy clean up
- Made in the USA; measures 9 x 13 x 2.25 inches
- USA Pan is a Bundy family company which has proudly manufactured high quality bakeware and provided jobs in the USA for over 50 years
8×8 or 9×9 Square Metal Baking Pans
Square metal baking pans are perfect for any bar cookie, shortbread, small batch brownie, snack cake, and even square layer cakes. If you haven’t made a square layer cake, give it a try! Wilton is a great, trusted brand and this option comes as a set of two for only $14.69. They have straight sides for even baking and extended edges as handles for easy grabbing out of the oven.
- Ready, Set, Bake: Wilton has the bakeware sets to help you make layer cakes to your heart’s content with this multipack of 8-inch non-stick square cake pans.
