Jenn-Air W2780 Convection Oven User Manual


 
Convection Baking Recommendations
As a general rule, when using recipes or prepared mixes developed for a radiant
bake oven, set the oven temperature 25°F lower than the recipe recommended
temperature. Times will be similar to or a few minutes less than recipe recom-
mended times. The chart on page 15 compares times and temperatures of many
baked foods. Use this as a reference.
For better browning, large pans such as cookie sheets or rectangular baking pans
should be placed lengthwise, front to back, on the rack. This centers the food in
front of the convection fan for better air circulation which gives better overall
browning.
Cookie sheets shouldbe withoutsides and made ofshiny aluminum. The best size
to use for cookie sheets is 14"x 12" (overall size includes handles).
