The cornbread that Robert made for our party was cooked in the same cast iron skillets he uses to cook on the stove top with. Cast iron rocks.

Ive done cornbread, so I suppose I can do other bread/cake type things in it.

I wonder if the sides would interfere with other things, like cookies or drop biscuits. Or, like cooking pizza in it :-)

I have heard of regular breads being baked in cast iron. I also found a selection of muffin tins and other baked-good type cast iron when I went to Callahan's.

I bought the 5 quart dutch oven specifically for No Knead Bread. Just have to figure out timing for it :-)

I will probably buy a pizza stone type of cast iron, I cant seem to find baking sheets online when ive looked. But, i'll definatly check at Callahan's :-)

No cast-iron advice, but good on you for paring down! And since you've got all the way until August to get it done, you can actually *sell* your stuff instead of having to give it away, so yay money!

I recommend rimmed cookie sheets or "Airbake" cookie sheets and heavy duty aluminum foil. With generous application of foil, the rimmed cookie sheet doubles as a broiler pan for meat and veggies. (You don't even need nonstick if you line the pans, obviously, but I have it because it is easier to clean. If you have cast iron though, you probably don't care.) I use my $8 small rimmed cookie sheet just about every day for just about everything I bake.

If you are serious about baking, "Airbake" cookie sheets provide a much more even distribution of heat with the drawback that they cannot be soaked in water (it can get into the air pockets).
