Baked Rolls

I wanted to talk in this blog briefly about using the convection setting on my oven.

When using the convection oven feature, a fan turns on which circulates the air through the baking chamber reducing hot and cool spots.

There is both a regular and a convection setting on my oven.

Yesterday I baked my quiche, chocolate chip cookies and rolls all at the same time with the convectional setting turned on. 

I used a 350 degree setting on my oven placing my items on two racks in my oven.

Everything turned out great.

I guess the main advantage of using a convection oven, is that  you can use multiple racks in your oven at the same time. 

Food is also cooked evenly and quicker.

Advantages of Using a Convection Oven

Even Baking

Improved Brown and Crisping

Quick Preheating of Oven

Better Cooking for Multiple Dishes Using More than One Oven Racks

In Summing Up . .

Since most recipes are written for regular ovens the temperature and times will be a little different.

As a rule of thumb, set your oven temperature at about 25 degrees less and check on the item sooner than usual.

I love my convection oven and will definitely purchase another one.

Happy Baking to All!
