Which one should you get? Sizing below based on popular vessels:

Vessel BreadMat Size
Lodge 4.5 Qt. Dutch Oven The BreadMat v2
Lodge 6 Qt. Dutch Oven -L or v2
Lodge 7 Qt. Dutch Oven The BreadMat-L
Field Company No 10 The BreadMat-L
Challenger Bread Pan The BreadMat-C
Lodge 3.2 Qt. Combo Cooker The BreadMat v2
Le Creuset Bread Oven The BreadMat v2

I cannot recommend the Lodge 5 Qt. Combo Cooker or the Lodge 5qt Dutch Oven as the diameter is too small and the uncoated rough interior can cause wear on the mat which can shorten its longevity. If you already own one of these, I recommend purchasing the Lodge 3.2 Qt. Combo Cooker and using the base of that (which perfectly fits The BreadMat) with the deeper side of the Combo Cooker or Dutch Oven as a lid.

Description

The BreadMat™ is a reusable parchment paper replacement. It is shaped to fit the majority of popular baking vessels.

Strong handles make moving bread in and out of a hot oven easier and safer than using parchment.

The unique patented design enhances heat distribution, evening color and reducing burns.

It is made from LFGB platinum food-safe silicone and is rated to 500F.

The BreadMat will reduce dark spots and encourage even baking on the bottom of your loaf, but if it still too dark after using The BreadMat, it is recommended to place a heavy baking sheet on the bottom rack of your oven to act as a heat shield to further reduce darkening and to protect your BreadMat from excessive heat.

* I can not longer ship the original BreadMat Internationally because of an issue with the packaging being an envelope and not a box. I can only ship the v2, the -L, and the -C internationally from now on.

Return Policy:
Since these are a food contact item, I cannot return opened BreadMats.

The BreadMat is manufactured in China

    Where has The BreadMat been all my bread-baking life?! This is a game changer, no more wasting flimsy parchment! My loaves baked up beautifully, and they washed up so easily. My only critique is I find the handles a bit short. In my smaller Dutch oven (Le Crueset) only about an inch sticks up over the edge to be able to grab, and in my larger Dutch oven (Le Creuset) I wasn’t able to grab the mat out of it at all by the handles, had to just grab the loaf, which is totally fine – BUT I think a couple extra inches in length on the handles would make the BreadMat absolute perfection. I mean, it’s 99% there already! Absolutely love it and will be telling all my sourdough baker friends about it!

    So excited and grateful to finally have the bread mats! I was struggling with bottom crusts getting too dark and these have solved that problem 100%. I can’t speak to how long they last, but they feel sturdy and I can’t find anything I’d change. I typically bake boules in a Lodge combo cooker, and both boules and batards and smaller things like bread bowls in my Challenger pan. These mats work great for all things! Highly recommend to all bread bakers. Very much worth the price. No more endless cutting and wasting parchment. Thank you, Rosehill Sourdough!

    Such a great product! Easy to store and clean, really reduces burning and encourages a more even bake, and eliminates having to waste parchment paper every time I bake! Can’t recommend this highly enough.

  4. Lisa Wollek

    OK, finally got a chance to use my bread mats!!! Sooooo glad I got 4!
    Pros:
    Well-made and sturdy
    Lightweight easy to clean and store
    Simple to use… Those grab tabs are everything!
    Interestingly enough: my bakes are even better than with parchment. Something about the way the bottom of the loaves is affected seems to assist with browning and crisping.

    Cons:
    I didn’t think of it myself!

    Way to go guys! 🙌🏻

    The Bread Mat is an incredible product that not only helps me produced better bread but also reduces waste with parchment paper which is a huge selling point for me. I have never bought something so fast in my life and it has gone way beyond my expectations that were already high. I’m already looking forward to my next bake!
