For baking/roasting with one rack, the rack should be placed so the top of the food will be centered in the oven. Always leave at least 1‘/z 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 cakes, 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 or third level from bottom.

l Cookies, biscuits, cakes and non-frozen pies- place rack on second or third level from bottom.

When baking on two racks, arrange racks on bottom and third level from bottom.

NOTE: For recommended rack placement when broiling, see “Broiling rack position chart” on page 16.

For best air circulation

The hot air must circulate around the pans in the oven for even heat to reach all parts of the oven. This results in better baking.

lPlace the pans so that one is not directly over the other.

lAllow 1% to 2 inches (4-5 cm) of space around each pan and between pans and oven walls.

lUse only one cookie sheet in the oven at one time.

Use the following as a guide to determine where to place the pans.

One pan

Place in the center of the oven rack.

Two pans

Place in opposite corners of the oven rack.

Three or four pans

Place in opposite corners on each oven rack. Stagger pans so no pan is directly over another.

NOTE: “oven peeking” may cause heat loss, longer cooking times and unsatisfactory baking or roasting results. Use a reliable kitchen timer to keep track of the cooking time.
