Convection Bake Tips

This mode may be used for breads, pastries and pies to take advantage of the bottom heat, yielding a better crust on baked items.

Use the conventional cooking time given in the recipe.

Most recipes are baked on rack positions 1 or 2 to take advantage of the bottom heat.

For a quick recipe conversion, reduce the oven temperature by 25ºF from the recommended conventional temperature.
