Bread Cooking Guidelines

1.Muffins, coffee cakes, quick breads, and yeast breads are generally baked on Cook Level 7.

2.Breads will not brown in a microwave oven as they do in a conventional oven. For color, use toppings or ingredients which supply color.

Some examples include rye flour, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, or dark spices, such as cinnamon. In some recipes, there may seem to be extra topping ingredients left over. Use all ingredients, since the bread will expand during cooking.

3.When cooking muffins, use 6 oz. glass custard cups or 6-cupcake capacity plastic tray. Line custard cups or plastic tray compartments with paper liners. Fill liners with 2 tablespoons of batter to avoid having the muffins rise over the edges. Arrange custard cups in a circle, rather than in rows. Remove muffins from custard cups or plastic tray immediately, to avoid soggy "bottoms".

4.Quick breads are usually fully cooked when toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Some breads will look slightly moist when first removed from microwave oven. Look through bottom of glass dish to see if bread is fully cooked. Breads should stand 3 to 5 minutes after cooking.

5.When reheating baked breads, heat only for a few seconds. Reheat only as much bread as needed for each meal. Wrap bread in a microwave-safe paper towel or napkin when

reheating to capture steam and help keep bread moist.

6Turn foods quarter-turn halfway through cooking time (non-turntable models, only).
