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 recommended times. The chart on page 16 compares times and
temperatures of many baked foods. Use this as a reference.
• For better browning, large utensils such as cookie sheets, jelly roll pans, 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 should be without sides and made of shiny aluminum. The
best size to use for cookie sheets and jelly roll pans is 151/2 x 12-inches
(overall size, includes handles).
Rack Positions
The rack positions noted are generally recommended for the best browning
results and most efficient cooking times. Refer to charts in the baking and
roasting sections for recommendations for specific foods. See page 18 for
suggestions and guidelines for multiple rack cooking.
