Baking tips
For best bake results:
• 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.
• For best results when baking cakes using two oven
racks, place racks in positions 2 and 4 (See figure 1)
and position cookware as shown in figure 2. Allow at
least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between cookware for
proper air circulation.
• Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny
bakeware. It may be necessary to reduce oven
temperature and cook time to prevent overbrowning
of some foods. Dark bakeware is recommended for
pies. Shiny bakeware is recommended for cakes,
cookies and muffins.
• For batter and dough-based baked goods such as
cakes, pastries, and breads, use the convection
function for best results.
