Benefits of the convection bake feature

—Recommended cooking method for cookies, cakes, biscuits and breads.

—Foods may cook up to 25 to 30% faster, saving time and energy.

—Multiple rack baking.

—No special pans or bakeware needed.

Convection functions use a fan to circulate the oven's heat uniformly and continuously around the oven. This improved heat distribution allows for fast, even cooking and browning results. It also gives better baking results when using two oven racks at the same time.

Heated air flows around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Breads and pastry brown more evenly.

Most food items will cook faster and more evenly with the convection feature.

Conv (Convection) Bake may be set for any oven temperature between 170°F (77°C) to 550°F (288°C).

Suggestions for Convection baking:

•For optimum cooking results it is recommended to preheat the oven when baking foods such as cookies, cakes, biscuits and breads.

•Reduce oven temperature 25°F from recipe’s recommended oven temperature. Follow the remainder of the recipe’s instructions using the minimum recommended cook time.

•For best results when baking cakes or cookies with Convection bake using 2 oven racks, place cookware on rack positions 2 and 5 (See Fig. 2). Hot air must be able to circulate around the cookware in the oven for even heat to reach around the food (Fig. 1).

•When using convection bake cook time reductions may vary depending on the amount and type of food being cooked.

•Dark or dull pans absorb more heat than shiny bakeware resulting in dark or overbrowning of foods. It may be necessary to reduce the oven temperature or cook time to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark pans are recommended for pies. Shiny pans are recommended for cakes, cookies and muffins.
