The Cuisinart FusionPlus™ Nonstick Stainless Steel 12-Inch Round Griddle Pan offers innovative technology with professional stainless steel construction, polished exterior finish, and aluminum-encapsulated base for even heating. Featuring an exclusive PFAS-free* PURELYSEAR™ surface to uniquely preserve your ceramic nonstick performance, this round nonstick griddle pan is ideal for making pancakes, eggs, bacon, and more, ensuring perfect searing and superior release. ArmorGuard® interior utilizes stainless steel peaks to form a shield around the ceramic nonstick interior, creating a highly durable, scratch-resistant cooking surface that’s metal-utensil safe, built to last, and easy to clean. Cast stainless steel Cool Grip™ stick handles help dissipate heat away from the handle and keep it concentrated in the griddle itself for stick handles that stay cool to the touch on the stovetop. Before cooking, heat the pan for about 2 minutes over medium low heat. A properly heated pan improves searing, prevents sticking, and preserves the nonstick surface. Once preheated, add oil or butter and let it warm before adding food. Conveniently dishwasher safe, this nonstick stainless steel Cuisinart cookware is also oven safe up to 500°F (lids 450°F) and compatible with all stovetops, including induction. *No intentionally added PFAS
