All-Clad Jelly Roll Pan
What the heck is a Jelly Roll???
This is another fabulous product from All-Clad! I love cooking with these high quality high performance pieces of gold standard bakeware! This Jelly Roll Pan is from their highly acclaimed baking line and is truly everything that it promises to be, although I have yet to make a jelly roll with it! I asked my husband for cookie sheets and because he was not sure which kind I wanted, he bought me both the All-Clad Cookie Sheet and this great Jelly Roll Pan!
I have since learned what a jelly roll is and might give that a try some day, but for now I am forcing this pan to have a double life as a cookie sheet! The cookies dont slide right off of it because it has one inch sides all around it, but I like the shape of it and it reminds me of cookie sheets I grew up with.
Opening it up the first time
.
The pan itself is 18 inches long overall which includes the two convenient handles on either side. The cooking portion of the pan is a little over 16 inches long. The rest of the dimensions are as follows: 13 inches wide by about 1 inch deep. This pan is made with the same fabulous standards as other All-Clad gold standard bakeware and includes five-ply construction of two layers of stainless steel sandwiching an additional three layers of aluminum! This construction technique does not allow it to warp or bend like a lot of my other cookie sheets and pans have done over the years. There is also a scratch resistant non-stick coating that is bonded permanently to the inside of the pan and leaves a nice champagne or gold finish.

I have made some fabulous cookies on this pan! I never knew that cookies could be one overall color until I used All-Clad. In the past my cookies have been darker on bottom and hopefully not too burned to eat while the tops have been light and sometimes too gooey. I had just about given up until I baked with my All-Clad for the first time. The pans have actually compensated for my lack of baking expertise (If I actually knew how to bake, I would be dangerous)!
I am pretty protective over my one hundred dollar pans so when I found my husband using this pan to cook nachos under the broiler, I was furious! The pan survived (and so did my husband), and held up to the broiler nicely as well as the baked on cheese that tried to cling to it.
Food does not stick to this pan due to the non-stick surface. All-clad claims that the coating is scratch resistant even to metal utensils. So far this is true. I dont use metal spatulas on much anymore, but my husband used on with his nachos and the pan came through with flying colors. The coating is nothing like Teflon because it is bonded and part of the pan itself, rather than a coating.
Cleaning is a splash!
My Jelly Roll Pan comes clean very easily just by holding it under the water most of the time. I will admit to having to wipe it down a bit more extensively when the nachos incident occurred, but for the most part nothing sticks to it. I do put it in the dishwasher as well to sanitize it. The pan comes out looking like brand new shiny clean every time!
Lastly -
Although I have never made a jelly roll, I have used this pan quite a bit over the last couple of years and it still looks new! I love the results and the ease of use and my family loves the perfectly cooked cookies I make with it!
