Pies

For best results, bake pies in dark, rough or dull pans to produce a browner, crisper crust. Stagger the pies for most even browning. Frozen pies in foil pans should be placed on an aluminum cookie sheet for baking since the shiny foil pan reflects heat away from the pie crust; the cookie sheet helps retain it.

Cakes

For best browning when baking several 20.3 cm or

22.9cm (8or 9″) cakes, stagger them so one pan is not directly above another. Warped or bent pans will cause uneven baking results and poorly shaped products. A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe recommends will usually be crisper, thinner and drier than it should be. If baked in a pan smaller than recommended, it may be undercooked and batter may overflow.

Baking Pans

Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the pan determines the amount of browning that will occur.

Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat resulting in a browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.

Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting in a lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and cookies require this type of pan.

Glass baking dishes also absorb heat. When baking in glass baking dishes, the temperature may need to be reduced by 12°C. (25°F.).

If you are using dark non-stick pans, you may find that you need to reduce the oven temperature 12°C. (25°F.) to prevent over-browning.
