The Breadtopia Hearth Baker creates a traditional domed bread oven within your standard home oven, trapping the dough’s own moisture to create all-important steam during the early part of the baking cycle that is crucial for a good rise and a crispy, artisan crust.

Its size and proportions are designed to let you bake either of the two classic traditional loaf shapes — the round boule or the elongated bâtard (or “country loaf”) — and it can also easily accommodate a pair of demi baguettes. The expanse of the flat base does not artificially push up the sides of your loaf, so you get bread with the natural shape of loaves baked in a traditional bread oven with a flat stone base.

The clay we use is the same high-quality German clay that you find in Romertopf bakeware. Its thermal resilience lets you confidently pre-heat to 500ºF and then turn your dough out directly onto the base with no fear of cracking.

Finally, unlike dutch ovens or other large cast iron baking vessels, the total weight of the Breadtopia Hearth Baker is an easily manageable 7 lbs.

    My first baking vessel. After my first couple of uses, it has produced some great bread. Easy to clean and bread does not stick easily. Awesome product!

    Absolute game changer for baking bread!

    So far, I have used this only 1 time. With that said, I was very very pleased with it. It is lighter weight than my cast iron Dutch oven. The bread browned more evenly all over. The bottom was not burnt, nor so tough you couldn’t cut your crust. It is a definite keeper for my kitchen. Cannot wait to use this many many times!!

    I bought this before looking at the reviews, clearly, since I am the first to review it! I liked the flexibility of loaf shapes, the ease of scoring on the base, and that it is so much lighter than cast iron. I was concerned about the gap on each side, that is too large to close up under heat. But I have baked in it twice, einkorn alongside my Breadtopia batard baker and pain de campagne alongside my cast iron reversible pot. Both times the hearth baker produced an equally good loaf, perhaps with a slightly thinner crust. The lighter vessel is really nice, so I will be using it often.
