Heating and Defrosting Time Charts
BAKED GOODS AND DESSERTS
Breads, pastries and pies should be heated uncovered, at HIGH power. They should be placed on absorbent material, such as a napkin or paper towel to prevent sogginess.
DO NOT OVERHEAT breads and pastries. Baked goods should only be heated until the crust feels warm to the touch
Because crusts of breads, pastries and pies are drier than insides or fillings, they heat more slowly. After heating let rest about 1 minute for equalization of temperature. If product is overheated, the end result will not be satisfactory.
Heating times for sweet baked goods and desserts are relatively short because of the high sugar content.
