Banneton Boule 8.5” Proofing Basket for Sourdough & Artisan Bread Baking – Stackable, Made From Bamboo & Sugarcane Pulp (2-Pack)

Great design! The smaller diameter base and narrower angled sides prevent spreading of the dough during the final proof, resulting in taller loaves. I prefer this to other popular wood pulp baskets such as the ones from Bulka. Not to dis Bulka, it's a high quality product, but it and many others have wide bases that give wide flat loaves. Both the Brod & Taylor and Bulka absorbed just the right amount of moisture during the final proof and, with a light dusting of rice flour, released perfectly. I wish I would have found this a long time ago - Highly recommended! Also, a very reasonable price.

The Brod & Taylor 9” Banneton Boule Proofing Basket is an exceptional tool for both sourdough and artisan bread baking. The material quality immediately stands out. It provides the ideal balance of structure and breathability, allowing dough to proof evenly while maintaining its shape. Loaves release cleanly every time, producing a beautifully defined boule with consistent results. What truly sets this banneton apart is how well it performs with gluten-free dough, which can be notoriously difficult to manage. The surface releases cleanly with minimal sticking, even with higher-hydration or delicate gluten-free recipes. Cleanup is equally impressive, far easier than traditional rattan bannetons. A quick brush or rinse and it’s ready for the next bake, with no lingering flour buildup or odors. The basket feels durable, well-made, and thoughtfully designed, striking the perfect balance between functionality and ease of maintenance. Whether you’re baking classic sourdough or experimenting with gluten-free artisan loaves, this banneton delivers consistent, professional-level results. Highly recommended for both home bakers and professionals looking for superior performance and low-maintenance care.

Dough doesn’t stick. Perfect size and shape. Excellent quality and reasonably priced. Prefer them over the wood style and the over priced pulp style bannetons. My crust turns out better when I prove my dough overnight in the fridge in these too.

I typically use a more expensive wood pulp banneton from Germany. I bought the Brod & Taylor boule and batard shaped bannetons and for the price, they can’t be beat. Sourdough didn’t stick and they dried nicely in a cooled oven. Would buy again

I made my first loaf with this banneton and it turned out great. I was using a standard tea cloth with flour with questionable results. This is a fantastic upgrade to what i used previous. I would recommend this product.

The Brod and Taylor is an excellent quality, well made Banneton Batard. I would recommend it for purchase.

I received this quickly & it arrived on my doorstep literally minutes before my dough was ready to go into it. I floured it lightly and put the proofed dough in it & refrigerated overnight. The dough came out of the banneton like a breeze. Also, I made two loaves, one in a completely different banneton I have. That one is a little wider than this one. The bread from that one was about 1/2 inch shorter than the one from this Brod & Taylor banneton. Although the ingredients and process were essentially the same, I think the shape of this one could have contributed to the higher height. Can't be sure but regardless I highly recommend this one. I was also very happy with the price & O was able to brush the flour out easily afterward.

I’m a sourdough baker and I love these and the ease of taking care of them. Great quality and durable.
