Yes, you can make oval loaves with a round BreadMat. I do it all the time!

The v2, -L, and -C all feature a solid silicone border to strengthen the mat
The v2 is the same size as the Original BreadMat
The -L has longer handles
The -C is cut perfectly for The Challenger Bread Pan

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 7.5 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.

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

The BreadMat is manufactured in China

  1. The Mobile Baker

    Awesome product. Highly recommend to those baking in cast iron. No more parchment and no more burnt bottoms! Love it!

  2. foodiebryan

    Love my mats! They’re perfect for my baking set up. While I’ve never had any issues with burnt bottoms for my loaves, the mat actually leaves a really nice “stamp” on the bottom of my loaves! I want to get some more since I usually bake more than 2 loaves at a time! If you haven’t gotten one (or two yet) you ARE missing out! They’re super easy to clean as well. After letting them cool down, I use warm soapy water and leave them to dry on top of my drying mat or i take a tea towel and then roll it up with the mat! Thanks for this amazing tool that I got to add in my baking arsenal!

    Amazing piece of kit for any bread baker. The bottom of my loaves brown evenly everytime. So easy to use with the handles to get bread out the dutch oven when hot. Couldn’t recommend enough!!

  4. Pam

    LOVE the bread mat!
    No more parchment paper, even baking across the bottom and super easy to clean!!! Love the tabs for getting the bread out!

  5. Lisa (verified owner)

    I’ve been baking sourdough for over 4 years. I love this bread mat!! No more parchment paper! I love that it’s flexible but still strong enough to support a large boulle!
    Great craftsmanship, easy to clean and very durable. I would recommend to anyone who enjoys baking quality breads!!
