and quickly. Foods cook faster with convection. • CONVECTION & HUMIDITY (Humidity models) ♦ Adding measured amounts of humidity while baking helps many products retain moisture. In some cases, such as with Pate Choux, the product will gain in volume. ♦ Moisture also makes the heat seem hotter (similar to a humid day) and products may cook a little faster. 2.

VI. COOKING GUIDE The first and most important step will be: Have your new oven hooked up to the proper power and (if applicable) water source.

Cookies Baking Temperature One of the most common items baked in your Cadco Convection Oven will be cookies. There are dozens of cookie manufacturers, and their products all have different baking characteristics. Most of the cookie recipes suggest a baking temperature of 325º - 350ºF. I have found that “Lower is better”. Over the years we have found that cookies bake best in a preheated oven at about 285º - 300ºF, assuming a 1.5 ounce cookie from refrigerated/frozen dough. By baking at a l

• Muffins ♦ 15 minutes at 325ºF/ 20% humidity works well for most standard size muffins. ♦ For jumbo muffins set the oven temp at 300ºF/ 20% humidity and bake the muffins for 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. ♦ The more dense your batter is the longer your muffins will take to bake. • Biscuits For the test we used a basic baking powder biscuit about 3” in diameter. Bake at 350ºF for 10-12 minutes. Some suggestions: ♦ A simple glaze can be made of powdered sugar a
