I bake a holiday bread in coffee cans every year, but with coffee companies going to plastic, does anyone have any recommendations on where to find cans? Have you gone to bread loaf pans instead? Please help!

this is a good pumpkin bread recipe without the raisins and always add extra spices also. I freeze when cool wrapped in foil and plastic wrap great tasting later after everything has melded together

Warbaby,

That’s a good question. I would stay away from the cans with liners. The liners contain a harmful material called Bisphenol A (BPA) which has been linked to a multitude of health issues.

I used to bake english muffin bread in coffee, but stopped when they started lining them. Do you use the cans with the lining?? Thanks

In the early 70s my husband found a recipe for Mushroom Bread , I believe in Mother Earth News. It was yeast bread baked in a coffee can – the top rose up over the can so it looked like a mushroom.

He baked it sometimes in soup cans for individual portions, really impressed visitors!!

My Grandmother used to make an Easter Bread with raisins in a can like this. It was very tasty. Thanks for the reminder!
