For info... Sa mga may oven toaster jan.. you can bake in it aside from toasting ******************** The oven toaster has two heating elements, one on top and another one at the bottom. What I have observed is that the bottom part of the cake is not burnt. That made me realized that the thin metal shown in the photo probably prevents the heat from heating the bottom part of the baking pan directly. It serves like a barrier for the heat. And since the cake rises, the top surface goes near the heating element and thus burning it. Therefore, I have to cover it with something to prevent the top surface of the cake from burning. But would that make the cake well done especially the inside part? And so I tried to cover it with aluminum foil. And the result is perfectly baked bread. Since then, I have already baked cupcakes, muffins, brownies and cookies. To bake cakes or breads: 1. Use a bread pan and be sure that the size fits inside the oven toaster. 2. Place your cake/bread mixture about half full of the bread pan so that when it rises, it won’t over flow. 3. Cover it with aluminum foil as shown in the figure. 4. Be sure to check it once in a while to know what’s happening inside. And to know if it’s already cook or what. To bake cupcake and muffins: 1. Again use a muffin/cupcake tray with a size that would fit inside the oven toaster. 2. Place half full up to 3/4 full of the cupcake/muffin mixture into the baking cups. 3. Cover it with aluminum foil. 4. Since the cupcake/muffin will rise it will definitely touch the aluminum foil. The top portion that will touch the foil will going to burn. To prevent this, place a metal thing at the middle (like what is shown in the photo) just to give it a room to rise. Note: Be sure that the aluminum foil will not touch the heating element on top. The foil will burn and as a result the heat will penetrate on what you are baking. The baking time would differ from mixture to mixture. Thus, you have to watch as it cooks so that it will not be burnt. In baking cookies, it’s all right not to cover it with aluminum foil. The space in between the heating element and the dough is just enough not to burn the cookies. But be sure to watch out what you are baking. Typically, baking cookies would just take around 10 to 15 minutes. So I hope this article will enlighten everybody that oven toaster is not just for toasting bread. You can also bake different recipes in an oven toaster and the possibility is endless.
