Setting Bake
Use the Bake function whenever a recipe calls for baking
using normal temperatures. When the set bake temperature
is reached the control will sound a chime to alert that the
oven is fully preheated. During Bake, the convection fan
may pulse on and off to help maintain optimum baking
temperatures.
Important: For batter and dough-based baked goods such
as cakes, pastries, and breads, use the convection function
for best results.
Baking tips
For best bake results:
•
Leave the oven light off while baking.
•
Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,
cakes, biscuits, and breads.
•
When using any single rack, position the rack so that
the food is in the center of the oven.
•
When using two oven racks, position cookware as
shown in
Figure
9. Allow at least 2-4 inches (5-10 cm)
of space between cookware for proper air circulation.
•
For best results when baking cakes using two oven
racks, place Glide rack in position 4 with the flat rack in
position 1. (See
Figure
•
For cookies on multiple racks place sheets on rack
position 3 using the flat rack, and 5 with the glide rack.
•
Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny
bakeware. It may be necessary to reduce oven temper-
ature and cook time to prevent overbrowning of some
foods. Dark bakeware is recommended for pies. Shiny
bakeware is recommended for cakes, cookies, and
muffins.
•
Do not open the oven door often. Doing may increase
the cooking time necessary for best results.
•
Many factors can affect baking results. See
