Quick note: you always bake 25☏ lower for convection to compensate for the harsher bake and keep your bake times accurate. Let's see this difference in action: the two cookies below were baked at 350☏ with convection (left) and 375☏ without convection (right). I highly recommend playing around with convection bakes to see if you can bring out those deliciously contrasting textures even more in your favorite cookie recipes like our Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies, Double Chocolate Chip Cookies, and Campfire S'mores Cookies. If you’re into this type of half-baked, crisp and chewy cookie, convection baking is your new best friend.
This is all thanks to the quick and harsher bake of the convection setting. Those edges crisp perfectly upon cooling, contrasting beautifully with the doughy and molten center. There’s nothing better in my book than a convection-baked chocolate chip cookie with a beautiful golden brown edge. That’s because I have a serious addiction to convection-baked cookies. You’ll probably notice me using cookies as an example a lot. But the beauty of this (sometimes) problem is that we can use it to our advantage! Convection Baked Cookies This can result in the center of your product remaining raw, even if the surface looks done. This leads to faster, stronger browning in less baking time. Quick and Fast Bakes: Use ConvectionĪs mentioned before, convection baking is harsher than standard radiant baking. Using a convection fan helps even out the heat flow and allow every tray to bake on the same schedule.
#Bake vs conv bake full
So when baking a full oven, with multiple pans, I find the convection setting to be really helpful. This usually results in the middle tray of cookies looking like they were baked in an oven that wasn't quite hot enough.
You’ll notice that the top and bottom trays often block heat from getting to the middle tray. This is especially apparent when baking with 3 trays of cookies in the same oven. This means products close to those elements (usually on the top and/or bottom rack depending on your oven) will bake significantly faster than those in middle of the oven. So in a standard bake, your heat source is fairly concentrated around your heating element. While you may find that some ovens turn their fans on briefly during standard bake cycles (mine actually does this, which means I can’t technically bake with the fan fully off), in general, the effect of those brief fan bursts is minimal. Cakes, Loaves, and Breads: Better on Standard.The same batch of cookies baked in different oven settings: 350☏ with convection (left), 375☏ with convection (middle), 375☏ on standard (right).
