Muffin Top Pan

Have you ever eaten the top of the muffin and thrown the rest away? If you favor the crusty, browned top of the muffin over the delicate, crumbly bottom, a muffin-top pan might be for you. There are fewer calories, less guilt and full flavor! Almost flat, each of the pan's six muffin cups is just 1/2 inch deep, yielding flying-saucer shaped muffins that are virtually all crispy brown top. Featured in Cook's Illustrated Resources September/October 2002, this pan has steel construction that spreads heat evenly to the sides, has a nonstick Silverstone coating that lets muffin tops slide out easily and is dishwasher safe.
