Are you looking for an alternative to traditional baking molds? You know those metal pans you use to bake everything from bread, to custards and quiches. The ones which can easily trap and burn excess ingredients. Oh, and they require cooling off before you can wash them, and even then, you’re left with dirty crusted overbaked food stuck inside and along the edges.   

What if we told you that you could skip the fuss of cleaning up after every bake. That you could present your baked items in a mold engraved with your logo. That this item can also be grabbed bare-handed straight out of the oven saving time. Oh, and that baking in these is the environmentally friendly option, this item is 100% organic and biodegradable created using 100% non-treated wood.

Have we piqued your interest yet? If you haven’t heard of them before these items we are talking about are called Panibois, wood baking molds

So, what exactly can you bake in Panibois?

It may be easier for us to just provide you with the few items you are unable to bake in Panibois, like a kitchen chair, for example. Instead, here's a look back at some of the wonderful recipes crafted by professional chefs. 

Wrapping up this introduction it’s safe to say that this year has been a great one, for Panibois especially, we have been working closely alongside chefs to create custom recipes exclusively for Panibois. Want to try baking in our molds without dishing out a ton of cash, we created individual discovery packs for each mold we offer. This lets you play around with your own recipes, or ours. We have videos, pdf recipes, and step-by-step guides available for each recipe.

A simple and decadent clafoutis, this delicious dessert can be prepared in about an hour. Believe us when we say preparation is very simple; you add the ingredients together, whisk, and pour over figs. Pop it into the oven for one hour at 320° F and serve directly in Panibois. Everything, yes everything, is prepped, baked, and served in a single mold.

We were a bit suspicious about such a simple recipe at first, yes sweet potatoes are delightful, but how could you step away from the traditional candied brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg sweet potatoes we always see around Thanksgiving time? Well, if you’re looking to shake up the table a bit, this recipe is for you. Not only does the cream add a delicious taste but the fresh sage completements everything so well. This is a magnificent recipe to introduce to your friends and family; believe us (we may have baked this a few times since we filmed).

Creating any kind of recipe involving yeast can be a little bit disheartening. Many different independent variables can affect how well your final product is. For instance, temperature plays a huge role in the proofing process as well as yeast in mixtures and egg white temperatures. These can all affect how your brioche may turn out, however, when everything falls into place you’re left with a melt-in-your-mouth pastry.

Yes, it looks beautiful and in addition the cocotte helps to facilitate moisture, so you’re left with a perfect bread.
