Lodge 5-Quart Double Dutch Oven and Casserole with Skillet Cover

Mid-range Bread Baking

Our verdict

This two-in-one design is clever for bread: the deep pot bakes the loaf while the lid doubles as a skillet, so you get two useful pieces from one purchase. The 5-quart size suits standard round loaves without leaving the bread swimming in a pot that is too large. Seasoned cast iron needs hand washing and occasional re-seasoning, and like all cast iron it is heavy — but for bakers short on storage, the dual use is a real advantage.
