ed bakeware is the best for even
heating. It is suitable for all baked
goods.
Recommended cooking temperatures
and times are based on shiny metal
bakeware.
Dark metal bakeware

shiny bakeware.
Reduce the cooking temperature by
25°F (13-14°C) when using dark bake-
ware.

25°F (13-14°C) when using glass bake-
ware.
