Ceramic cake aerator (chimney-style) Rabbit Le Creuset

La Le Creuset Ceramic Rabbit Pie Chimney will be your best ally for achieving the most delicious and perfectly baked pies and empanadas. Besides being an absolute delight, the charming Bunny Pie Vent from the French brand will provide you with the best steam outlet for your closed pies with filling. You just need to place it in the center of your pie to achieve perfect baking.

The rabbit’s lower part is pierced and it also has a small hole at the top. This design makes possible the circulation of steam through the body of the ceramic figure, acting as a chimney for the steam to escape, which makes it an indispensable helper for baking empanadas, cakes and pies with moist fillings.

How to use the Le Creuset Ceramic Rabbit Pie Chimney

It’s very easy to use:

• Place the ceramic rabbit on the base of the pie you’re going to bake; if possible place it in the center.
• Put the filling onto the pie or empanada base (meat, vegetables, fruit...), around the rabbit.
• Cover the pie with the remaining dough, piercing it only once so that the bunny pie can peek its little head out.
• Bake the pie without needing to poke the rest of the dough with a toothpick or fork. The steam that builds up inside the pie will escape through the rabbit, preventing the dough from puffing up or splitting open.

Why we like the Le Creuset Ceramic Rabbit Pie Chimney

1. It’s a piece as lovely and charming as it is functional.
2. It not only decorates, it’s an ideal chimney to remove steam from the inside of your pies, achieving excellent results.
3. No more poking the dough with a fork to stop it from puffing up!
4. A figurine for collectors. Durable, sturdy and from Le Creuset.

NOTE: If the dough of shortcrust pies or empanadas, among others, isn’t pierced or a hole isn’t made, the steam generated inside will puff up the pie looking for an escape; if it can’t find one, the dough will inevitably split.
