Bigger pans often need a lower oven temperature (about 25°F lower) and longer baking. Check doneness with a skewer rather than the recipe time.

How this calculator works

Round area = pi x (diameter / 2) squared, square area = side squared, rectangle = length x width. Multiplier = your pan area / recipe pan area, assuming both pans are the same depth.
