Bake
Convection Bake
Baking
is cooking with dry, heated air. Both the upper
and lower elements cycle to maintain the oven tem-
perature:
Convection baking
is similar to baking. In this case,
heat comes from
a third element behind the backwall.
The main difference in convection baking is that the
heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convec-
tion fan:
The benefi ts of convection baking include:
•
Slight decrease in cooking time
•
Three rack cooking
•
Higher volume (yeast items rise higher)
•
More items cooked at once
For Best Results:
•
Reduce recipe temperature by 25
°
F. Refer to the
convection baking chart for examples.
•
Place food in low-sided, uncovered pans such as
cookie sheets without sides.
•
Center baking pans side to side on the oven rack.
• Do not use convection bake for custards, quiches,
pumpkin pie, or cheesecakes. These items do not
benefi t from the convection-heating process. Use
standard bake instead.
The convection bake mode is well-suited for baking
large quantities of food on multiple racks. It can be
used to prepare cookies, pastries, breads, snack foods
and appetizers among other items. DO NOT use con-
vection bake for meats. Use convection roast instead.
The bake mode can be used to prepare a variety of
food items, from pastries to casseroles. It can also be
used to roast meats.
For Best Results:
• When baking on two or more racks, use convection
bake instead.
* The convection bake temperature is 25° F less than
recommended on packages or recipes. The tem
perature in this chart has been reduced 25° F.
** This chart is a guide. Actual times depend on the
mixes or recipes baked. Follow recipe or package
directions and reduce temperature appropriately.
*** When convection baking on two racks, use posi
tions one and three. When using three racks, use
positions two, three and four.
Quick Cooking Tips:
Converting from standard bake
to convection bake
•
Reduce recipe temperature by 25° F.
•
