BAGEL
How it Works
When choosing the Bagel mode, the upper heating elements toast foods on top and the bottom heating elements cycle on and off to warm them on the bottom.
When to Use This Setting
Choose for toasting the cut sides of dense, sliced bread products such as bagels or
English muffins.
•Preheat – No
•Rack Position – Middle
•Recommended Pans for Toasting – A pan is not needed for toasting. To allow proper toasting of bread products such as bagels or English muffins, place them directly on the oven rack provided with the convection oven. Slice the bagels and/or English muffins in half and place on the oven rack with the cut sides facing up.
Tips for Preparing Bagels and/or
English Muffins for Toasting
•Begin by selecting uniform slices of bagels or English muffins to toast at the same time. This will ensure even browning.
•Make sure slices of bagels and/or English muffins fit comfortably in the convection oven. The oven is designed to hold the equivalent of a maximum of six bagel halves.
•When inserting bagels and/or English muffins in the convection oven, position the cut sides facing up.
Options
Defrost mode
Choose Defrost if you are toasting frozen bagels or English muffins. The Defrost setting extends the cooking cycle to toast frozen foods. Additional cook time may be required by the user.
