Using the Pizza Stone
Convection baking is very consistent and even. The fan circulates the hot air around the food making baked goods rise quickly and evenly. Bake your favorite cookies, cakes, pies, brownies, etc. The bake ware that will fit in your oven are up to 9 inches in length. We do not recommend the use of oven roasting bags or glass containers in the oven. Never use plastic, cardboard, paper or anything similar in the oven.

1.Preheat oven for 15 minutes, then place cookie sheet on the wire rack to begin baking.
2.Use parchment paper on cookie sheets so cookies will not stick.
