Rack and pan placement
When using one rack, the rack should be placed
so the top of the food will be centered in the
oven. Always leave at least 1 l/2 to 2 inches
(4-5 cm) between the sides of the pan and the
oven walls and other pans.
For proper cooking, follow these guidelines
for specific foods:
l
Angel and bundt cake pans, yeast breads,
frozen pies, large roasts and turkeys-place rack
on lowest level
l
Casseroles, muffins, most quick breads and
meats-place rack on second level from bottom
l
Cookies, biscuits, cakes and non-frozen pies-
place rack on second or third level from bottom
The hot air must circulate around the pans in the
oven for even heat to reach all parts of the oven.
For best air circulation:
4 Place the pans so that one is not directly over
the other.
l
Allow 1 i/2-2 inches (4-5 cm) of space around
each pan and between pans and oven walls.
l
Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at one
time.
l
When cooking with one pan, place pan in the
center of the oven rack.
l
When cooking with two pans, place pans in
opposite corners of the oven rack.
4 When cooking with three or four pans, place
pans in opposite corners on each oven rack.
Stagger, so no pan is directly over another.
NOTE: “Oven peeking” may cause heat loss,
longer cooking times and unsatisfactory baking or
roasting results. Rely on your timer, and view
food through door window.
