BAKING
Always place baking pans or casseroles on one of the roasting racks.
Never place pans on the bottom of the ROASTING PAN.
If space allows, baked goods such as pies, cakes, cookies, and
casseroles should be placed on the flat rack.
Use the large capacity of the Roaster Oven efficiently. It is large enough
to bake two loaves of bread, or to cook meat and a vegetable at the
same time.
The ROASTING PAN will easily accommodate three 1

-quart
casserole dishes. This is ideal for preparing a complete meal such as
meat, potatoes, and a vegetable at the same time.
For easy clean-up, place foods that may boil over (such as fruit pies and
casseroles) on a cookie sheet before positioning on the rack.
Convenience foods can be baked in the Roaster Oven. Place container
on the ROASTING RACK WITH HANDLES or the FLAT RACK. Follow
package directions.
The Roaster Oven accommodates the following size baking pans:
1 - 12-cup muffin pan
1 - 6-cup jumbo muffin pan
2 - 12-cup mini muffin pan
1 - 8-, 9-, or 10-inch pie plate
1 - 14” x 8”x

1 - 13” x 9” x 2” baking dish
1 - 8- or 9-inch square baking pan
1 - 10-inch bundt pan or angel food pan
Metal pans reflect and transfer heat better than glass pans. Glass pans
can be used if desired, but the bottom crust will not be as brown.
STEAMING
Steaming is an easy way to cook tasty, nutritious, and healthy foods
without added fats.
SLOW COOKING
For slow cooking, preheat oven to 450°. Brown meat and vegetables,
add liquid, and lower the temperature to 250°.
Slow cooking is done at a low temperature. Always keep food covered.
Stirring is not necessary.
Cut meat and vegetables into uniform-size pieces for even cooking.
Add liquid sparingly, as little moisture escapes from the Roaster Oven
during cooking.
To convert a standard recipe to slow cooking, double the time and
decrease the oven temperature to 250°.
It is not necessary to brown meat and vegetables in a separate fry pan.
This can be done directly in the ROASTING PAN. Use the instructions in
the recipe section entitled Food For a Crowd as your guide to browning
in the ROASTING PAN.
