YES!!!
Pyrex can stick a cake as quick as any other. You can spray it with PAM and then flour it too.
If you're doing a chocolate cake, save a tablespoon or two of the mix (if you're using one) and use that instead of flour. It will be brown instead of white like flour against your brown cake. Looks nicer.
Don't be fooled. If you have non-stick bakeware...grease and flour it anyway.

IMO Pyrex is a worthy investment. They will last a life time as long as they are used properly. I recently broke one because I got it WAY too hot under the broiler with fish and then put it in water to cool it down, big mistake, it shattered. This was a bad idea even if I had been using metal. I should have been using the broiler pan! So be wary of that - but otherwise Pyrex is fantastic and you will get even results with none of the possibly dangerous non-stick stuff coming off in your food! You will have to experiment a little to see if your recipes require a little more or a little less time in the oven, but it is a worthwhile experiment. They also sell some of the Pyrex dishes with convenient rubbermaid lids that snap on so you can take a casserole out on the road with you.

No! I dislike using extra flour when I am baking as it tends to put an odd taste and unattractive look to the finished cake. If you have it, lightly spread about a tablespoon or less of olive oil across the pan surface that will have batter on it.
I would only recommend grease and flour for metal pans for things like brownies.

A pyrex dish is not the best thing for baking cakes.
Get a proper cake pan, the kind which comes apart after.
Greasing & flouring is not required for new coated pans.

Yes, It prevents the cake from sticking to the pyrex dish when you lift it and prevents burning to a certain extent

i tried not to grease and flour it before but the cake stick cling on the side. THE PERFECT WAY TO AVOID THIS IS TO:
GREASE & FLOUR YOUR DISH OR PAN.
How? brush the whole pan/dish w/ shortening,butter or margarine evenly then cover it with flour. lastly, tap excess flour.
goodluck.

I just spray Pam on my baking dishes and it works great. No need to flour. Cake comes out great.

yeah that is good to do, or another thing you can do is grease the sides and then line it with parchment paper. then when the cake is baked you just take to paper off and throw it out. we do that at the bakery i work at. works well. good luck.

Yes. It prevents the cake from sticking. Even have to do this with non-stick pans as well.
