Ankarsrum Loaf Clay Baker by Reston Lloyd

Our 2-Quart Clay Baker is a natural companion for anyone who loves to create baked goods or prepare delicious dishes with their Ankarsrum Assistent Original Stand Mixer. Crafted in Portugal from natural clay, the baker features a two-part design. The unglazed lid is soaked in water before use and slowly releases steam during baking. The inside of the base is glazed with a glass frit lining, creating an easy to clean surface.

The Ankarsrum Clay Baker is a game-changer for perfect bread and pastries. It also makes delicious and effortless one-pot meals like chicken with rice, lamb chops and vegetables, or braised artichokes – simply add all the ingredients and let the clay baker do the work!

The Ankarsrum Clay Baker, manufactured to the highest standards by Reston Lloyd, continues the legacy that Rita Bolle began. Bolle, founder of Reston Lloyd, introduced clay pot cooking to United States retail stores in the late 1960s, and she created the first frit-glazed base for easy cleaning.

• FIRST TIME USE:
  Before using your Ankarsrum Clay Baker for the first time, fill the unglazed
  lid with water and let it sit for 30 minutes. For subsequent uses, a 10-
  minute soak is sufficient. After the long soak is complete, use a nylon
  brush to loosen any clay dust particles left from the manufacturing
  process from both parts of the roaster.

• HOW TO CLEAN:
  Allow the Ankarsrum Clay Baker to cool completely before cleaning. Use
  liquid dish soap to clean the bottom, glass frit-lined section of the baker,
  and plain water to clean the unglazed lid. Place the lid upside down on the
  base and store in a place with good air circulation. Do not put the baker
  away wet. For deep cleaning after years of use, visit RestonLloyd.com for
