Operation Baking TRU CONV (TruConvec™) The rear element only operates at full power. There is no direct heat from the bottom or top elements. The motorized fan in the rear of the oven circulates air in the oven cavity for even heating. Use this setting for foods that require gentle cooking such as pastries, TruConvec™ souffles, yeast breads, quick breads and cakes. Breads, cookies, and other baked goods come out evenly textured with golden crusts. No special bakeware is required. Use this function for single rack baking, multiple rack baking, roasting, and preparation of complete meals. This setting is also recommended when baking large quantities of baked goods at one time. Baking Tips • Make sure the oven racks are in the desired positions before turning the oven on. • DO NOT open the oven door frequently during baking. If you must open the door, the best time is during the last quarter of the baking time. • Bake to shortest time suggested and check for doneness before adding more time. For baked goods, a stainless steel knife placed in the center of the product should come clean when done. • Use the pan size and type recommended by the recipe to ensure best results. Cakes, quick breads, muffins, and cookies should be baked in shiny, reflective pans for light, golden crusts. Avoid the use of old, darkened pans. Warped, dented, stainless steel and tincoated pans heat unevenly and will not give uniform baking results. 26 Baking Baking Chart Food Pan Size Single Rack Position Temp Time (min) BREADS Biscuits Cookie sheet 3 or 4 400˚ F (204.4˚ C) 8 - 10 Yeast loaf Loaf pan 3 or 4 375˚ F (190.6˚ C) 30 - 35 Yeast rolls Cookie sheet 3 or 4 400˚ F (204.4˚ C) 12 - 15 Nut bread Loaf pan 3 or 4 375˚ F (190.6˚ C) 30 - 35 Cornbread 8" x 8" 3 or 4 400˚ F (204.4˚ C) 20 - 25 Gingerbread 8" x 8" 3 or 4 350˚ F (176.7˚ C) 35 - 40 Muffins Muffin tin 3 or 4 375˚ F (190.6˚ C) 15 - 20 Corn muffins Muffin tin 3 or 4 375˚ F (190.6˚ C) 15 - 20 CAKES Angel food Tube pan 3 or 4 375˚ F (190.6˚ C) 35 - 45 Bundt Tube pan 3 or 4 350˚ F (176.7˚ C) 45 - 55 Cupcakes Muffin pan 3 or 4 350˚ F (176.7˚ C) 16 - 20 Layer, sheet 13" x 9" 3 or 4 350˚ F (176.7˚ C) 40 - 50 Layer, two 9" round 3 or 4 350˚ F (176.7˚ C) 30 - 35 Pound Loaf pan 3 or 4 350˚ F (176.7˚ C) 60 - 65 COOKIES Brownies 13" x 9" 3 or 4 350˚ F (176.7˚ C) 25 - 30 Choc. chip Cookie sheet 3 or 4 375˚ F (190.6˚ C) 12 - 15 Sugar Cookie sheet 3 or 4 350˚ F (176.7˚ C) 10 - 12 PASTRY Cream puffs Cookie sheet 3 or 4 400˚ F (204.4˚ C) 30 - 35 PIES Crust, unfilled 9" round 3 or 4 425˚ F (218.3˚ C) 10 - 12 Crust, filled 9" round 3 or 4 375˚ F (190.6˚ C) 55 - 60 Lemon meringue 9" round 3 or 4 350˚ F (176.7˚ C) 12 - 15 Pumpkin 9" round 3 or 4 350˚ F (176.7˚ C) 40 - 45 Custard 6 - 4 oz cups 3 or 4 350˚ F (176.7˚ C) 35 - 40 ENTREES Egg rolls Cookie sheet 3 or 4 400˚ F (204.4˚ C) 12 - 15 Fish sticks Cookie sheet 3 or 4 425˚ F (218.3˚ C) 18 - 21 Lasagna, frz Cookie sheet 3 or 4 375˚ F (190.6˚ C) 65 - 70 Pot pie Cookie sheet 3 or 4 400˚ F (204.4˚ C) 35 - 40 Gr. peppers stuffed 13" x 9" 3 or 4 375˚ F (190.6˚ C) 65 - 70 Quiche 9" round 3 or 4 400˚ F (204.4˚ C) 25 - 30 Pizza, 12" Cookie sheet 3 or 4 400˚ F (204.4˚ C) 15 - 20 Mac. & cheese, frz Cookie sheet 3 or 4 375˚ F (190.6˚ C) 60 - 65 VEGETABLES Baked potatoes On rack 3 or 4 375˚ F (190.6˚ C) 60 - 65 Spinach souffle 1 qt. casserole 3 or 4 350˚ F (176.7˚ C) 45 - 50 Squash Cookie sheet 3 or 4 375˚ F (190.6˚ C) 50 - 55 French fries Cookie sheet 3 or 4 425˚ F (218.3˚ C) 15 - 20 Note: The above information is given as a guide only. 27 Operation
