Seasoned home bakers know that stoneware is a smart choice thanks to its even heat distribution and ability to move safely between the oven, microwave, freezer, and dishwasher. It also happens to be beautiful, as evidenced by this Mackenzie-Childs casserole baker that doubles as whimsical serveware.
The piece features the brand’s signature collectable checkered pattern with a chic scalloped rim. It’s perfect for casseroles as well as crisp fruit cobblers, bread puddings, roasted veggies, and baked ziti, while looking stylish enough to bring straight to your next potluck or holiday gathering. According to one shopper, it also makes an excellent gift.

Le Creuset is a leader in colorful cast-iron cookware that’s every bit as heirloom-worthy as it is an everyday asset in the kitchen. This gorgeous gourd-shaped cocotte is the perfect way to welcome in the fall season—and all the cozy comfort food that comes with it.
Lightweight and easy to clean, the pumpkin cocotte makes quick work of chilis, pot roasts, baked pastas, and mashed potatoes with its 4-quart capacity. Oven-safe up to 500°F, it transitions seamlessly from oven to table, where it doubles as a festive autumnal centerpiece.

Paris Hilton’s two-piece nestled pie dish set promotes even heat distribution for consistently baking pies, tarts, quiches, and cobblers. Ruffled rims give pie crusts a classic finish, and the charming gingham pattern is pretty enough to show off as serveware.
Shoppers say the dishes “make baking feel a little more special,” “feel sturdy,” and make cleanup “a breeze.” Better yet, at just $25 for the set, each dish comes out to less than $13.
