These two racks can also be used for a large oven meal.

Three Rack Baking

When several sheets of cookies are to be baked, bake them on racks #1, #3 and #5. Place the baking sheets directly above each other on the respective racks to allow air to flow around the baking sheets.

Bakeware Type

Aluminum bakeware gives the best browning results.

Cookie sheets with only two sides give the best results. Aluminum commercial half-sheets or professional cooking utensils may be used.

Placement

For better browning, utensils such as cookie sheets, jelly roll pans and rectangular baking pans should be placed crosswise on the rack with the shorter sides on the right and the left. This allows the air to circulate freely.

When baking on more than one rack, stagger round cake pans but cookie sheets should not be staggered.

CAUTION:

WHEN USING THE OVEN IN ANY MODE

Never use aluminum foil to cover the oven racks or to line the oven. It can damage the oven and cause a fire hazard if heat is trapped under it. See page 3.
