Oven-Safe Temperature of Each Cuisinart Collection
All Cuisinart pans are oven-safe, but the temperature varies by collection.
You can always check out the product manuals on Cuisinart.com, but the chart below conveniently displays each collection’s oven-safe temperatures.
Collection | Type | Oven-Safe Temperature |
---|---|---|
Cuisinart Dishwasher Safe Anodized | Anodized Aluminum | 500°F |
Cuisinart Chef’s Classic Nonstick Hard-Anodized | Hard-Anodized Aluminum | 500°F |
Cuisinart GreenGourmet Hard-Anodized Nonstick | Hard-Anodized Aluminum | 500°F |
Cuisinart Advantage Nonstick | Aluminum | 350°F |
Cuisinart Contour Hard-Anodized | Hard-Anodized Aluminum | 500°F |
Cuisinart Ceramica XT Nonstick | Aluminum | 350°F |
Cuisinart Elements Pro Induction Nonstick | Aluminum | 500°F |
Cuisinart Multiclad Pro | Stainless Steel | 500°F |
Cuisinart Chef’s Classic | Stainless Steel | 500°F |
Cuisinart Copper Tri-Ply | Stainless Steel | 500°F |
Cuisinart Hammered Tri-Ply | Stainless Steel | 500°F |
Cuisinart Professional Series | Stainless Steel | 500°F |
Cuisinart French Classic Tri-Ply | Stainless Steel | 500°F |
All Cuisinart collections are available on Cuisinart.com or Amazon, where you can find more information and read dozens of reviews. However, sometimes the oven-safe temperatures listed on Amazon are inaccurate.
For example, the Amazon listing for the Cuisinart Multiclad Pro collection says it’s oven-safe up to 550°F, but in the manual on Cuisinart.com, it’s listed as oven-safe up to 500°F. I spoke with a Cuisinart product specialist to clarify, and they confirmed that the temperatures in the manual (and in this guide) are correct.
Are Cuisinart Glass Lids Oven-Safe?
Most people are hesitant to put glass in the oven, but Cuisinart clearly states that its tempered glass lids are oven-safe up to 350°F.
Keep in mind, even if the cookware is oven-safe up to 500°F, the glass lids it comes with are not.
Overheating glass lids can result in the glass shattering, causing a huge mess and a dangerous situation.
Below are the Cuisinart collections that have glass lids:
- Cuisinart Dishwasher Safe Anodized
- Cuisinart Chef’s Classic Nonstick Hard-Anodized
- Cuisinart Advantage Nonstick
- Cuisinart Contour Hard-Anodized
- Cuisinart Ceramica XT Nonstick
- Cuisinart Elements Pro Induction Nonstick
- Cuisinart Chef’s Classic
- Cuisinart Professional Series
Are Cuisinart Stainless Steel Lids Oven-Safe?
Cuisinart stainless steel lids are oven-safe up to 500°F, giving you more leeway than the glass lids.
Below are the Cuisinart collections that have glass lids:
- Cuisinart GreenGourmet Hard-Anodized Nonstick
- Cuisinart Multiclad Pro
- Cuisinart Copper Tri-Ply
- Cuisinart Hammered Tri-Ply
- Cuisinart French Classic Tri-Ply
Are Cuisinart Pans Broiler-Safe?
Cuisinart stainless steel and enameled cast iron cookware are broiler-safe, but the non-stick pans are not.
The specific Cuisinart collections that are safe for use under the broiler are:
- Cuisinart Multiclad Pro
- Cuisinart Chef’s Classic
- Cuisinart Professional Series
- Cuisinart French Classic Tri-Ply
Although there are a few exceptions, non-stick cookware, including Cuisinart, is not broiler-safe.
The non-stick coating will degrade and release potentially dangerous fumes when exposed to high heat. And since broilers apply heat from above the food, there’s no buffer between the flames and pan to protect the non-stick coating.
How to Find the Oven-Safe Temperature of Cuisinart Pans
If you’re not sure about the oven-safe temperature of your specific Cuisinart pan, there’s an easy way to look it up.
Step 1: Go to Cuisinart.com

Step 2: Use the search bar to look up the collection or model number. Or, navigate to the cookware section and find the pan or set you own.

Step 3: Navigate to the user manual.

Step 4: Find the maximum oven-safe temperature within the manual.

Each Cuisinart manual is slightly different, but all have a section with instructions for “Cooking temperature in the oven.” That’s where you’ll find the oven-safe temperature.
Precautions When Cooking with Cuisinart Pans in the Oven
Although Cuisinart pans are oven-safe, it’s important to use caution when using them in the oven.
Keep these precautions in mind to protect your cookware and prevent injury.
Never Overheat: Never go above the maximum oven-safe temperatures. The manufacturer sets those specific temperatures for a reason. Heating above the allowable temperature is dangerous, especially with non-stick pans, as they can release toxic fumes.
Be cautious with stainless steel, too. Overheating a stainless steel pan can cause it to warp and discolor. Plus, overheating stainless steel pans causes food to stick.
Avoid Drastic Temperature Changes: Never take a hot pan from the oven and rinse it with cold water. Conversely, never expose a cold pan to high heat. Drastic temperature changes lead to thermal shock, which will cause the pan to warp. When you take a Cuisinart pan out of the oven, set it aside and let it naturally cool down before washing it.
Use Caution When Handling: Always use two hands and pot holders when taking cookware to and from the oven. Even though the handles are designed to stay cool when cooking on the stove, every part of the cookware will be hot when you take it from the oven. After removing the pan from the oven, place a towel or oven mitt over the handle as a reminder that it’s hot, and turn the handle away from you.
Broiler Temperatures Vary: The “high” setting on your broiler may exceed the broiler-safe or oven-safe temperature of your specific pan. Consult your oven manual for the specific temperatures.
Final Thoughts
The bottom line — Cuisinart pans are oven-safe, but the temperatures vary depending on the collection.
As a general rule, Cuisinart stainless steel and hard-anodized aluminum pans are oven-safe up to 500°F, and the aluminum pans are oven-safe up to 350°F.
The lids are oven-safe, but the maximum temperature varies by material. Glass lids are only oven-safe up to 350°F; stainless steel lids are oven-safe up to 500°F.
Only the stainless steel and enameled cast iron cookware is broiler-safe. Any Cuisinart pan with a non-stick cooking surface is not broiler-safe.
If you’re unsure about the oven safety of your pan, check Cuisinart.com, where you’ll find the user manual for each collection and model. If you can’t find your specific pan, contact Cuisinart customer service.
Don’t rely on the information on Amazon; I’ve found several examples of misinformation regarding oven-safe temperatures.
When cooking with Cuisinart pans in the oven, never exceed the maximum oven-safe temperatures, avoid drastic temperature changes, use caution when handling, and keep a close eye on it when broiling.
