OXO Good Grips Glass Pie Plate | 9 in, Includes Leakproof Lid, Glass, Freezer-to-Oven Safe, Pies & Quiches, Dishwasher Safe, Microwave Safe
Is the OXO Good Grips glass pie plate a dependable choice for everyday pies, quiches and leftovers?
For a household that wants one dish to bake in, serve from and cover for leftovers, I’d choose this OXO: it’s a 9-inch borosilicate glass pie plate with an included leakproof lid. Its freezer-to-oven capability is especially handy for make-ahead baking, and glass lets you keep an eye on how the bottom crust is browning. The main choice is whether its 9-inch size suits your recipes, or whether you’d rather have a wider Pyrex plate or deeper ceramic dish.
From the Amazon listing
- ✓Borosilicate glass construction withstands extreme temperature changes without the risk of cracking or shattering
- ✓Easy-read 9” dimension marking
- ✓Microwave, dishwasher, and freezer safe
Will it fit a regular pie recipe?
The OXO is marked 9 inches and has a 1.4-quart capacity, a familiar size for many standard pie recipes. Check your recipe’s pan size before baking, though: a recipe written for a 9.5-inch dish can leave you short on room here. If you often make generous fruit fillings or want extra depth, the MORA’s 9-inch interior is specified as 2.5 inches deep.
Is glass the best material for browning and even baking?
Glass is a strong everyday choice when you want to see the crust as it colors and prefer a dish that can go from oven to table. Metal tends to brown crust more quickly, so watch the edges when adapting a metal-pan recipe; ceramic retains heat well and keeps a baked pie warm longer at the table. For an occasional baker who wants visual browning cues and easy serving, I’d take glass. If even heat distribution is your main priority, choose the Pyrex or MORA; choose OXO when being able to watch the crust matters more.
Can you put a frozen pie in this glass dish and bake it?
This OXO is specified as freezer-to-oven safe, so it suits pies you assemble ahead and bake from frozen. Avoid knocks and chipped edges, and use ordinary care when handling hot glass; don’t put a hot dish onto a cold, wet surface. The dish is also microwave and dishwasher safe, which makes reheating and cleanup straightforward.
Does the lid make it practical for leftovers and get-togethers?
Yes: the included lid means you can cover the pie in the same dish after serving and keep leftovers together without hunting for foil or another container. For a drive to a gathering, carry it level and supported rather than treating any pie-plate lid as a substitute for careful packing. That’s the approach I’d use even with a lid described as leakproof.
How they compare
A 9-inch borosilicate glass pie plate with an included leakproof lid for freezer-to-oven baking and covered leftovers.
A roomier 9.5-inch Pyrex plate with a fluted rim for bigger recipes and a decorative edge.
A deep, fluted vanilla-white ceramic dish when presentation and generous filling capacity come first.
Who it suits
This set is for the home cook who bakes pies or quiches now and then, wants a dependable 9-inch glass dish, and values having a lid ready for storage or bringing a pie along. It’s a particularly practical pick if you like to check the bottom crust as it bakes and want dishwasher-friendly cleanup.
What you give up
- The 9-inch size is less forgiving than a 9.5-inch plate when a recipe is written for a larger dish or has a generous filling.
- Glass is not the fastest route to a deeply browned crust, and it won’t hold warmth at the table like the deeper ceramic option.
When another one is the better buy
Pyrex C-209 9.5in Fluted Rim Glass Pie Plate - Made in USA: Choose the Pyrex if you want a 9.5-inch glass plate with a fluted rim, especially for recipes that need a little more width or a decorative edge.
MORA Ceramic Pie Pan - 9 inch - Deep Fluted Pie Dish - Vanilla White: Choose the MORA if deep sides and a fluted presentation matter more than seeing the crust through glass; its 9-inch interior is specified as 2.5 inches deep.
Questions buyers ask
What size is a standard glass pie plate?
Many familiar pie recipes use a 9-inch plate, and that is the OXO’s marked size.
How durable is a glass pie plate for regular use?
Borosilicate glass is a sensible choice for repeated baking, and this plate is specified to withstand extreme temperature changes. Like other glass bakeware, it still deserves careful handling: avoid hard knocks and don’t use a dish with a chipped rim.
Which pie plate gives the best crust browning?
Glass makes it easier to watch the bottom crust, while metal generally browns crust faster. Ceramic holds heat well and serves beautifully, but if a crisp, well-browned bottom is your priority, use a recipe suited to your pan and check the crust as it bakes.
Is the lid useful for storing leftovers?
Yes. Cover the remaining pie in the same dish and put it away without transferring slices to a separate storage container.
Is a glass pie plate easy to clean?
This one is dishwasher safe, so cleanup can be simple after the pie is gone. For stuck-on filling, soaking the dish before washing is an easy way to loosen residue rather than scraping aggressively.
Can glass bakeware crack from temperature changes?
Yes—sudden temperature changes can crack glass bakeware, and impacts can damage it too.
