PanSpanDisposable Pie Plates
Which disposable pie plates should I use for baking several pies, sharing them, or taking them to a gathering?
For most holiday baking, I’d choose the NoCry 9-inch pans: their curled lip helps support the crust, and the stated inner, outer and bottom measurements make sizing easier to judge. If you’re baking for a big event, Fig & Leaf is my bulk pick; for a smaller batch, Waytiffer keeps the commitment to ten pans. Foil pie plates are handy for gifting and cutting down on dishes, but set them on a sturdy baking sheet before filling or lifting—especially with a heavy pie.
#1 · NoCry

Choose NoCry for standard 9-inch pie recipes when clear sizing and a supporting curled lip matter. Its stated 8.5-inch inner rim, 7-inch bottom and 1.25-inch height help explain what “9 inch” means in practice.

Choose Fig & Leaf when you need a generous supply for bake sales, school events or holiday gifting. These heavy-duty pans have a full curl lip and stack for easier storage.

#5 · Waytiffer
Waytiffer 9" Pie Pans (10pack) - Disposable Aluminum Foil Pie Tins,Heavy-duty, Baking Tin Plates, Standard Size
Choose Waytiffer when ten pans are enough for a small baking session or a few pies to share. They’re also intended for baking, freezing and transporting food, so they suit occasional use without taking up space with a large stack.
Will a 9-inch foil plate fit my usual pie recipe?
Check whether the measurement refers to the rim or the interior: those are not the same, and the usable base is smaller still. NoCry gives the clearest breakdown, with a 9-inch outer rim, 8.5-inch inner rim and 7-inch bottom. For a recipe you make often, compare its pan size and crust fit to those measurements before committing to a bulk pack.
How do I stop a foil pan from buckling under a heavy pie?
Don’t carry a filled foil plate by its rim alone. Set it on a sturdy baking sheet before adding filling, bake it on that sheet, and move the sheet rather than lifting the pan unsupported. NoCry and Fig & Leaf both have curled lips that help support the crust, but a baking sheet is still the sensible backup for a heavy apple or pumpkin pie.
Should I choose a standard or deep-dish plate?
Match the pan to the recipe rather than assuming every 9-inch plate holds the same amount. NoCry gives a 1.25-inch height and describes its pan as deep dish; Exsmile calls its depth standard. If your pumpkin pie recipe is written for a particular depth, use those dimensions as a guide and avoid filling any foil pan right to the rim.
Which pack makes sense for a bake sale or holiday batch?
For a large run, I’d choose Fig & Leaf or Exsmile: both come as 60-pan packs, and both are described as stackable. NoCry is a strong middle ground when you want a defined 9-inch fit and a useful supply for repeated baking. Waytiffer is the better match when you only need a handful and don’t want a bulk stack.

Questions buyers ask
Do disposable 9-inch pie pans hold less than a Pyrex pie dish?
You can’t tell from the “9 inch” label alone whether a foil pan holds less; compare its usable interior and depth with your glass dish.
Do disposable pie pans run small in volume?
Capacity varies by pan, so there isn’t one volume figure for all 9-inch plates. Check your recipe’s intended pan depth and leave headroom rather than filling to the rim.
Which disposable pie plates work for a standard pumpkin pie?
NoCry is the easiest pick to judge against a standard pumpkin pie recipe because it gives inner dimensions and height. Match those to your recipe and leave room for filling.
Will a foil pie plate give me a soggy bottom crust?
A foil pan does not behave exactly like a heavier glass or ceramic dish, and results depend on the recipe and oven. For better bottom browning, bake on a preheated sturdy baking sheet and avoid putting a cold, filled pan straight into the oven if your recipe calls for a hot start.
Do these disposable pie plates come with dome lids?
If a lid matters, choose a pan-and-lid set or a separate cover that clears the filling; for meringue, use a carrier with enough clearance to avoid touching the topping.
Can I stack disposable pie pans with plastic lids for transport?
Don’t stack anything directly on a pie unless its lid is rigid and leaves room above the filling. For a potluck or bake sale, keep pies level in a carrier or box and separate them so the foil rims and toppings don’t take the weight.
