The Haier HWO60S4LMX1 is an electric oven with various cooking functions. To bake a cake in this oven, you should use the "Conventional Bake" or "Convection Bake" function, depending on the type of oven you have.
- Conventional Bake: If your Haier oven has a "Conventional Bake" function, use this setting for traditional baking, where the heat comes from the top and bottom heating elements. It is ideal for cakes, cookies, and other baked goods that require even heat distribution from both elements.
Here's how to use the Conventional Bake function:
- Preheat the oven to the temperature specified in your cake recipe.
- Place the cake batter in the appropriate baking pan and position it in the center of the oven.
- Select the "Conventional Bake" function on your oven's control panel.
- Set the temperature and the timer according to your cake recipe's instructions.
- Once the cake is fully baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool before serving.
- Convection Bake: Some Haier ovens come with a "Convection Bake" function, which uses a fan to circulate the hot air inside the oven, resulting in more even and faster baking.
Here's how to use the Convection Bake function:
- Preheat the oven to the temperature specified in your cake recipe.
- Place the cake batter in the appropriate baking pan and position it in the center of the oven.
- Select the "Convection Bake" function on your oven's control panel.
- Set the temperature and the timer according to your cake recipe's instructions. In convection baking, you may need to lower the temperature by about 25°F (around 15°C) or follow the recipe's recommended adjustments for convection baking.
- Keep an eye on the cake during baking, as it may cook faster with convection.
If you're unsure about the specific functions and settings on your Haier HWO60S4LMX1 oven, it's always a good idea to consult the user manual that came with the appliance.
