PROBLEM
Oven cooking results not
what expected
POSSIBLE CAUSES AND/OR SOLUTIONS
The set temperature was incorrect - Double-check the recipe in a reliable cookbook.
Oven temperature needs adjustment - See "Oven Temperature Control" in the "Electronic Oven
Controls" section.
Oven was not preheated - See the "Baking and Roasting" section.
Racks were positioned improperly - See the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section.
Not enough air circulation around bakeware - See the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section.
Batter distributed unevenly in pan - Check that batter is level in the pan.
Darker browning of food caused by dull or dark bakeware - Lower the oven temperature 25°F (15°C)
or move rack to a higher position in the oven.
Lighter browning of food caused by shiny or light colored bakeware - Move rack to a lower position
in the oven.
Incorrect length of cooking time was used - Adjust cooking time.
Oven door was not closed - Be sure that the bakeware does not keep the door from closing.
Oven door was opened during cooking - Oven peeking releases oven heat and can result in longer
cooking times.
Rack is too close to bake burner, making baked items too brown on bottom - Move rack to higher
position in the oven.
Pie crusts browning too quickly - Use aluminum foil to cover the edge of the crust and/or reduce
baking temperature.
