Understanding Oven Temperatures

Fan ovens and conventional ovens can behave differently; always watch the bake as well as the clock.

Things to remember

  1. Preheat before putting baked goods in the oven.
  2. Use the temperature type specified in the recipe.
  3. Check doneness early if your oven tends to run hot.

Put this into practice

Try these habits when following a home recipe. Pay close attention to what your ingredients look and feel like, and use the recipe’s timing as a guide rather than the only measure of success.
