Metal and ceramic pans impede this. That means that although glass takes slightly longer to reach the same temperature as the oven, it cooks crusts faster and darker. This is why many cookbooks suggest lowering the oven temperature by 25 degrees when using glass, so the filling can catch up.

Does glass pan affect baking time?

The standard advice for baking in glass is to lower the oven temperature by 25°F from what the recipe calls for, and bake up to 10 minutes longer. The hard edges we see here are more pronounced in high-sugar, high-fat recipes; your casserole or bread pudding are less likely to be adversely affected.

Will a cold glass dish break in the oven?

The glass will break, if the thermal expansion is not homogeneous and causes high stress. Modern glass and glass ceramics minimize the thermal expansion coefficient. This coefficient changes with the temperature so you can not assume that the effect is the same, if the temperature difference is the same.

Can you put Pyrex straight from fridge to oven?

Transferring a cold Pyrex dish directly from the fridge to the oven carries a higher risk of the glass shattering, due to the extreme change in temperature. It is a good idea to allow Pyrex to come to room temperature for around 1 hour before putting it into the oven.

Why did my Pyrex dish explode?

When a Pyrex bowl is heated or cooled rapidly, different parts of the bowl expand or contract by different amounts, causing stress. If the stress is too extreme, the bowl’s structure will fail, causing a spectacular shattering effect.
