Many ovens run hotter or cooler than the dial says, and most have hot spots.
Get it right
- Use an inexpensive oven thermometer on the middle rack
- Preheat fully; many ovens need 15 to 20 minutes
- Bake on the middle rack unless the recipe says otherwise
- Rotate pans halfway through if your oven bakes unevenly
- Open the door as little as possible
