Bake
The Bake mode can be used to prepare a variety of food items, from pastries to
casseroles. Refer to recipe or package directions for oven temperature and baking
time.
Tips Preheat the oven if the recipe recommends it.
Baking time will vary with the size, shape and finish of the bakeware. Dark metal
pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster with darker results. Insulated bake-
ware will lengthen the cook time for most foods.
For best results, bake food on a single rack with at least 1-1

pans or dishes and oven walls.
Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the window to periodically check
food for doneness instead of opening the door.
If multiple racks are necessary, use a maximum of 2 racks. For cakes use rack
positions 3 and 5. For cookies use rack positions 1 and 4 (27” appliances) or 2
and 5 (30” appliances). Stagger pans so that one is not directly above the other
(see graphic below). See "Pan Placement" under "General Tips" for more info.
You may also consider using a convection mode.

Bake is cooking with dry, heated air. Both the upper and lower el-
