Convection Baking

Convection baking allows you to cook foods the same way as a conventional oven, using an element to heat the air inside the oven. Any oven temperature from 250°F to 450°F may be set.

A fan gently circulates heated air throughout the oven, over and around the food. Because the heated air is kept constantly moving, some foods cook slightly faster than in regular oven cooking.

Before you begin, make sure the metal rack is in place. Both racks may be used for two level cooking.

When baking, remember that the oven, door and dishes will be very hot!

Per USDA Guidelines, cook meat to an INTERNAL temperature of at least 160°F, and poultry to an INTERNAL temperature of at least 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness. For more information, see www.foodsafety.gov.

Cooking Tips for Convection Baking

nMetal pans are recommended for all types of baked products, but especially where browning is important.

nDark or dull finish metal pans are best for breads and pies because they absorb heat and produce crisper crust.

nShiny aluminum pans are better for cakes, cookies or muffins because they reflect heat and help produce a light tender crust.

nGlass or glass-ceramic casserole or baking dishes are best suited for egg and cheese recipes due to the cleanability of glass.

nWhen baking on one level, use the lower level. The top clips are to only be used in two level baking.
