CRISP CONVECTION
Benefits of Crisp Convection
The Crisp Convection feature is best for light colored
and delicate baked goods like cakes, tarts, cookies,
puff pastries, scones, muffins, biscuits, yeast-free
breads, etc. The hot air continually circulated by the
fan distributes heat more evenly than the natural
movement of air in a standard thermal oven. This
movement of hot air cooks foods more evenly, crisping
surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier
breads. The crisp convection heating element heats
up faster, reducing cooking time by as much as 30
percent.
Tips for Crisp Convection
• Time saved will vary depending on the amount and
type of food to be cooked. Choose cookie sheets
without sides and roasting pans with very low sides
to allow heated air to circulate around the food.
Food baked on pans with a dark finish will cook
faster.
• When using Crisp Convection with a single rack,
place oven rack in position C. If cooking on multiple
racks, place the oven racks in positions B and D.
• It is important to uncover foods so that surfaces of
food remain exposed to the circulating air, allowing
browning and crisping.
• Keep heat loss to a minimum by only opening the
oven door when necessary.
