Yes, you can generally put glass in the oven at 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit), provided it is oven-safe glass. Before doing so, ensure to check the manufacturer’s guidelines to confirm the glassware’s oven safety and temperature limits. Gradually heating and cooling the glass can also prevent cracking. Avoid placing cold glass dishes into a hot oven to avert thermal shock, which could shatter the glass.
