True Convection Tips T True Convection cooks with heat from a third element behind the back wall of the oven. The heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan. True Convection is well suited for cooking individual serving-sized foods such as cookies and biscuits. It is also good for cooking on multiple racks (2 or 3) at the same time. Baking cookies is possible on 6 racks simultaneously. In this case, the baking time increases slightly. The benefits of True Convection include: • Even browning. • Time savings as a result of using multiple racks at one time. • Reduce recipe temperature by 25 ºF. Refer to True Convection chart. • Place food in low-sided, uncovered pans such as cookie sheets without sides. • If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1" to 1 ½" of air space around the pan. • For cakes use rack positions 2 and 5 (see graphic below). 27" appliances: 30" appliances: True Convection Chart Food Item Cakes Cupcakes Layers (8" or 9") Cookies Sugar Chocolate Chip Breads Dinner Rolls Biscuits Muffins Cream Puffs Fresh Rack Position 1 rack 2 racks 3 racks Temp.
