Speed Bake Cooking System uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat uniformly and
continuously around the oven. This improved heat distribution allows for fast, even cooking and
browning results. It also gives better baking results when using two racks at the same time.
Heated air flows around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Meats cooked with

moist on the inside. Breads and pastry brown more evenly. Most foods baked in a standard oven
can be cooked faster and more evenly with Speed Bake
