What is the difference between normal oven and oven toaster bake while baking bread or cakes.?

Question

Cakes baked at 350F in oven comes out fully baked while in the oven toaster bake its burnt on the top and bottom also partially baked in the middle. what's the temperature to bake cakes in oven toaster bake?

Answer 1

It is all about size and air space. A toaster oven would work great for mini cakes or cupcakes. With bread you need to have alot of space for it to rise well and not burn the top or bottom, as you have discovered. There is just not enough room for good hot air to circulate around such dense products. Try it again with mini loaves/cakes, lower the temp to 325 and increase the baking time...watching it as it get close. Good luck. toaster ovens are great--but not perfect!
