Convection Cooking

Metal Pans

are recommended for all types of baked products, but especially where

browning or crusting is important.

Dark or dull finish metal pans are best for breads and pies because they absorb heat
and produce crisper crust.

Shiny aluminum pans are better for cakes, cookies or muffins because these pans
reflect heat and help produce a light tender crust.

Glass or Glass-Ceramic

casserole or baking dishes are best suited for egg and cheese

recipes due to the cleanability of glass.

Combination Cooking

Glass or Glass-Ceramic

baking containers are recommended. Be sure not to use

items with metal trim as it may cause arcing (sparking) with oven wall or oven shelf,
damaging the cookware, the shelf or the oven.

Heat-Resistant Plastic

microwave cookware (safe to 450°F) may be used, but it is not

recommended for foods requiring crusting or all-around browning, because the
plastic is a poor conductor of heat.
