Emile Henry EH349503 ovale broodbakpot 4,5L Grand Cru rood

Baking bread at home often leads to pale crusts, dense crumbs, and loaves that stick to the pan. The Emile Henry EH349503 Oval Bread Baker eliminates these frustrations with its proprietary HR® ceramic, engineered to replicate a professional bread oven. The domed lid traps steam released by the dough, creating the humid environment essential for a crisp, golden crust and open crumb structure. The unglazed interior absorbs moisture evenly, while the high-resistance glaze on the exterior ensures easy release and cleaning. From a classic sourdough to a seeded whole wheat, this baker delivers bakery-quality results in your own oven.

Who is it for

This oval bread baker is ideal for home bakers who want consistent, artisan-style loaves without a dedicated steam-injection oven. It suits anyone from beginners following no-knead recipes to experienced bakers experimenting with high-hydration doughs. Its 4.5-litre capacity accommodates loaves made from up to 1 kg of dough, perfect for family meals or small gatherings.

Tips

For best results, preheat the baker in the oven before adding your dough. Dust the interior lightly with flour or use parchment paper for easy release. After baking, allow the baker to cool completely before washing to preserve the glaze.
