How to Swap to Non-Toxic baking dishes:

Here's how to swap to non-toxic baking dishes:

What to know about baking dishes

Baking dishes sit in a hot oven with your food for extended periods, so the material they're made of matters. Welpr focuses on whether the dish is made from safe, non-reactive materials that won't leach anything into your food at high temperatures.

  • Glass, ceramic, stoneware, and stainless steel are the safest and most common materials for baking dishes.
  • Dishes with nonstick coatings, glazes, or colorful finishes deserve a closer look since these surface treatments can vary widely in quality.

Review the baking dishes you already have

Check the bottom or packaging of your current baking dishes to identify what they're made of. Focus first on the dishes you use most often, since those have the most contact with your food at high heat.

  • Look for any labels or product descriptions that mention the material — plain glass, stoneware, ceramic, or stainless steel are all strong options.
  • If a dish has a nonstick coating, check whether the brand confirms it is PFAS-free and tested free of lead and cadmium — not just PTFE-free.

Use your current baking dishes more safely

If you're not ready to replace a baking dish right away, a few simple habits can reduce what transfers from the dish to your food. This is especially helpful for dishes with coatings or glazes you're unsure about.

  • Line the dish with unbleached parchment paper to create a barrier between your food and the surface.
  • Retire any dishes with chipped, cracked, or peeling coatings — damaged surfaces are more likely to release material into food.

Choose cleaner replacements

When shopping for a new baking dish, prioritize simple, non-reactive materials with no unnecessary coatings. Glass and plain stoneware are excellent all-around choices that are naturally inert and oven-safe.

  • Look for dishes made from borosilicate or tempered glass, unglazed stoneware, or stainless steel — and avoid anything with plastic components that could contact food.
  • Click the button above to shop Welpr Approved baking dishes.
