Your cart is empty.Did you ever want to bake two different types of pies to give your guests options, but making two whole pies would leave you with too much leftover dessert? That’s where the Split Decision Pie Pan by Chicago Metallic comes in to save the day. This versatile pan includes an insert for making either a traditional full size pie, a half pie, or two separate half pies simultaneously without the ingredients blending. To satisfy everyone’s palate, from savory to sweet, simply place the convenient divider into the pan, and then create a different pie on each side with its own filling, crust, and topping. For simple removal and serving of either whole or half pies, both the removable divider and bottom of the pan easily lift out and have a silicone-based, nonstick coating for easy release, so your crust won’t be damaged in the process and cleanup is a breeze. Pan is made from heavy-weight carbon steel for superior heat conduction and even baking. Avoid using sharp-edged utensils and knives against the surface. Oven safe to 450°F / 232°C; not intended to be used under the broiler. Full pan measures 9 inches in diameter by 1-1/2 inches high. Hand-wash only to extend the product life. .

Pan is really nice and heavier than I expected. ( in a good way) I like the idea of being able to bake two different pies to satisfy different tastes in our family.

I bought this to share pies with other family members. It works great and baked well. It’s nonstick so each half comes out easily, especially with the removable bottom.

I do really like this pan a lot.Some down sides - Obviously, it's not water-tight since the bottom is removable. This usually isn't a problem with pies since the bottom crust generally holds any liquid, but it's not designed to be used for looser deserts like an apple crisp. I've even found that any grease or butter will sizzle out of the bottom and drop into the oven, so I usually put something on the shelf under it to catch drips just in case.Also, please note that you have to chose ONE of the bottoms that come with the pan and keep the other in the cupboard... you don't just insert the split bottom over the flat bottom. I've seen reviews complaining about uncooked bottom crusts, but I believe that is user error, not a design flaw... either they are not cooking their pies properly or have left both bottoms in the pan (or perhaps have set it directly on a cookie sheet to catch drips instead of setting the cookie sheet on the shelf below like I do, which permits more airflow around the pan.)If this is a major concern for you, I recommend blind-baking bottom crusts before filling but I haven't seen any marked difference between my bottom crusts in this pan vs other pie pans when making the same recipes.Another thing to note... my standard 9in pie ring doesn't fit well on this pan and I have to use a hand-made D-shaped piece of tinfoil to protect the edges, which is a little annoying, but what can you do, right? It's a D-shaped pie!Up sides - Easy to clean, easy to use and allows you to make smaller servings of home-made pies. It's just two of us in our household and my husband complains if I make too much dessert... he's always watching his weight. I prep several pies at once in this kind of split-pan and freeze them. When I'm ready, I take it out, spray half of my split pan and pop the frozen pie in to bake. Perfect 4 servings of fresh homemade pie on demand!I've never actually used the flat bottom, but the removable bottoms makes removing a pie from the pan (once frozen or baked) incredibly easy and neat... no digging around and making crumbs or loosing bits of crust. Would be neat for making multiple pie flavors for a bigger family.Definitely worth a try for bakers, pie enthusiasts and small households.

I like it because it lfeels sturdy and heavy weight. Gift for grand daughter who loves to bake. Feels as if it will last very long time.p

This is perfect, easy to use and clean, perfect half size portions so I’m not wasting half a pie now when no one wants any or wants different kinds would definitely recommend

Nothing wrong with the pan, it just a pain with the crust. Pie cooked fine but I doubt I’d use it again.

This pan works surprisingly well. The insert allows you to lift out your pie from the bottom. You can use it to make one pie, without the divider or two with. Either way, works great.

I liked the idea of making 2 different pies in one pie tin. Still have to work out the crust part. Had to use a gluten free crust so maybe better with a regular crust. But still like the idea.
