How much do you decrease the oven temperature when baking in a glass bowl?
You generally need to decrease the oven temperature by 25°F when baking in a glass bowl.
Here's why:
* Glass retains heat: Glass is a good heat conductor, meaning it holds onto heat longer than metal. This can cause food to cook too quickly and unevenly.
* Hot spots: Glass can develop hot spots where the heat is concentrated, leading to burning or uneven cooking.
Tips for baking in a glass bowl:
* Use a dark glass bowl: Darker glass absorbs more heat, which can help to distribute it more evenly.
* Preheat the bowl: Preheat the glass bowl in the oven for 10-15 minutes before adding the batter or dough. This helps to distribute the heat more evenly.
* Check for doneness early: Glass can make it difficult to tell when food is done, so check for doneness early.
Important note: Always follow the specific recipe instructions, as they may have specific temperature adjustments for glass bowls.
