Abstract:

A bread pan for baking a plurality of joined miniature loaves of bread, each pan having spaced upwardly extending dividers therein to divide the pan into sections, each divider having a recess formed along the upper edge thereof. A lid is provided which comprises a frame adapted to fit over the edges of the pan with a plurality of transverse spacer members therein aligned over the dividers with a downwardly extending portion thereof extending into each recess and terminating short of the bottom thereof leaving a space to form a pull-apart joinder between the miniature loaves of bread along the bottom lengthwise edge of each loaf. The upper edges of the spacers extend above the baking compartments to prevent the dough from contacting while the loaves are being baked, thereby providing a plurality of miniature pull-apart loaves of uniform shape and weight.
