Oven Cooking Guide
Rack Position
Multiple Rack Cooking When using multiple racks, follow the placement recommendations below.
Two rack: Use rack positions 2 and 5.
Three rack: (for convection bake): Use positions 1, 3 and 6. The rack in posi-
tion 3 can be extension rack if desired.
Pan Placement Baking results are better if pans are placed in the center of the oven. If baking
more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1" to 1 ½” of air space around the pan.
When baking four cake layers at the same time, stagger pans on two racks so that
one pan is not directly above the other. To allow for best baking results stagger
pans as shown in the graphic below.
Baking Pans Here are some tips for cooking with baking pans:
Glass baking dishes absorb heat, therefore reduce oven temperature 25°F
when baking in glass.
Shiny, smooth metal reflects heat resulting in lighter, more delicate browning.
Dark, rough or dull pans will absorb heat resulting in browner, crisper crust.
Some manufacturers recommend reducing temperature 25° F when using
these pans. Follow manufacturer recommendations.
Use glass or dark metal pans for pies.
Insulated baking pans may increase the recommended baking time.
RACK POSITION 6 (highest position) – melting cheese, broiling thin foods
RACK POSITION 5 – broiling most meats, toasting bread
RACK POSITION 4 – broiling thicker meats

on cookie sheet or baking pan, cakes, frozen foods, biscuits, brownies,
muffins
RACK POSITION 2 – Used for pies, casseroles, breads, bundt or pound
