TIPS AND HINTS
• It is important to rotate any item you are baking in
the oven to ensure even cooking.
• It is recommended to bake one rack at a time. If
you do bake with more than one rack, be sure to
rotate both the baking tray and the rack positions
halfway through bake time.
• To ensure even flow of air when using baking tray
or other utensils, do not slide tray to the back of
oven. Leave about 1 to 2 inches of air space around
all sides of each pan for even air circulation.
• Make sure the wire racks are in the desired position
before you turn on the oven.
• Bake on the shortest time suggested and check for
doneness before adding more time. Baked goods
are done when a stainless steel knife inserted into
the center of the baked item comes out clean.
• See reference charts on pages 23–24 for
recommended baking times and temperatures.
