PanSpanAluminum Pie Tins
Which aluminum pie tins should I choose for baking and sharing pies without worrying about getting my pans back?
For several holiday pies or a bake sale, I’d choose Fig & Leaf: its heavy-duty foil, full curl lip and stackable design suit batches that need to travel. NoCry is my pick when you want clearly stated usable dimensions and a shaped lip to support the crust. For a few pies rather than a big baking run, Waytiffer’s 10-pan pack keeps the commitment smaller.
#1 · Fig & Leaf
Fig & Leaf (60 Pack) Premium 9-Inch Pie Pans l Disposable Aluminum Foil l Heavy-Duty l Tin Plates for Tart Quiche Pies
Choose Fig & Leaf for holiday baking, potlucks or fundraisers where you want a larger supply of heavy-duty pans. The full curl lip helps hold the crust, and the flat bottoms are designed for baking, reheating and freezing.
#2 · NoCry
NoCry Premium Disposable Pie Pans 9 Inch (50 Pack) — Foil Aluminum Tins with Curl Lip for Baking Delicious Tarts or Crispy Pastry Crusts — Lightweight Yet Sturdy — Even Heat Distribution
Choose NoCry if you want a 9-inch pan with clearly defined rim, base and height measurements. Its outward-curling lip and folded sides give the crust a supportive shape.
#3 · JOCHER
50 Pack 9 Inch Round Aluminum Foil Pie Pans,Pie Tins Disposable,Ideal for Baking Delicious Tarts or Crispy Pastry Crusts, Freezer & Oven Safe,Pie Pan For Cooking, Storage, Roasting, & Reheating
Choose JOCHER for a large batch of standard-style pies and other baked or savory dishes. It’s a practical disposable option for gatherings and meal prep, but use a sheet pan underneath when moving a filled tin.
#4 · Spare Essentials
9" Aluminum Foil Pie Tins (25 Pack), Disposable Aluminum Pie Pans, Foil Pans for Baking, Cooking, Freezer Safe, Round Foil Pans, Foil Plates Perfect for Quiche, Tarts, Pies, & Takeout Spare Essentials
Choose Spare Essentials for ordinary 9-inch pie, tart or quiche baking when you want a basic foil pan for oven-to-freezer use. It’s a flexible everyday option, though it doesn’t offer the specifically shaped crust-supporting lip found on the first two picks.
#5 · Waytiffer
Waytiffer 9" Pie Pans (10pack) - Disposable Aluminum Foil Pie Tins,Heavy-duty, Baking Tin Plates, Standard Size
Choose Waytiffer when you’re baking a few pies, quiches or tarts and don’t need a large stash. Its 10-pan pack is handy for sharing food without needing to get a reusable dish back.
Which disposable pie pans are the sturdiest for a full pie?
I’d start with Fig & Leaf: it is specifically described as heavy-duty and has a full curl lip, which helps support the crust. NoCry is the other strong choice if you value its outward-curling lip and folded sides. Even a sturdier foil tin is still lightweight, so set it on a rimmed baking sheet before filling and keep it there for oven transfers.
How do I keep a foil pie pan from buckling when I lift it?
Don’t lift a hot, filled foil pan by its rim alone. Bake it on a rimmed metal sheet, then carry the sheet with both hands; this supports the base and makes moving several pies much less awkward. Fig & Leaf and NoCry have the most clearly described lip features here, but the sheet-pan support matters with every pick.
Will a 9-inch foil tin fit my glass pie plate recipe?
A 9-inch label doesn’t guarantee the same usable capacity as a glass plate: rim diameter, base width and depth all affect how much filling fits. NoCry gives the clearest measurements: a 9-inch outer rim, 8.5-inch inner rim, 7-inch bottom and 1.25-inch height. If your recipe is especially full or prone to bubbling over, choose a tin based on usable interior size rather than the outer rim alone.
Which pack makes sense for a holiday baking batch?
For a substantial batch, Fig & Leaf offers 60 pans, while NoCry and JOCHER each offer 50. Waytiffer is the small-batch choice with 10 pans. I’d pick Fig & Leaf when a shaped lip and heavy-duty construction matter most, and JOCHER when you mainly want a large supply for varied dishes.

Questions buyers ask
Do disposable aluminum pie pans make a soggy or pale bottom crust?
Thin foil pans don’t hold heat like heavy glass or stoneware, so the bottom can brown differently. For a better chance at a well-baked base, put the tin on a preheated rimmed baking sheet and follow your recipe’s bake cues rather than relying only on the top crust’s color.
Are any of these deep-dish pie tins?
NoCry is the only pick here with a stated pan height: 1.25 inches. Don’t assume that a 9-inch foil pan is deep dish; check the inside depth and usable capacity against your filling before baking.
Do these pie tins come with plastic dome lids?
For whipped cream or meringue, plan on a separate rigid pie carrier with a tall dome and a secure closure; choose one with enough clearance so the topping isn’t pressed.
Can I put aluminum pie tins in the microwave?
No: don’t put these aluminum pans in a microwave. JOCHER specifically warns against microwave use; for reheating, move a serving to a microwave-safe dish.
Can I reuse a disposable aluminum pie pan?
They’re meant for disposable use, and thin foil can bend or crease when washed and handled. If you want a pan for repeated baking, choose a reusable pie plate instead.
What’s the safest way to transport a hot pie in a foil tin?
Use oven mitts to handle the hot sheet, and let the pie settle on a stable surface before moving it into a carrier.
