casserole dish
Deep baking pan
A casserole dish is a deep, oven-safe container used for baking casseroles—layered dishes of meat, vegetables, pasta, or grains cooked slowly in sauce.
Typically ceramic, glass, or enameled cast iron, with handles for lifting from the oven.
The term sometimes refers to the food itself: I'm bringing a casserole dish to the potluck.
