Uneven cooking in oven

We do not use oven very often but we have spent more time in camper than usual Wife has found that oven cooks unevenly are there any adjustments that can be done to help this out. I told her she needed to preheat oven but that did not hrlp . Any suggestions.

One trick for these ovens to heat evenly is to get a pizza stone that fits and put it in above the burners to distribute the heat.

Ceramic tiles also do a good job of evening out the heat

My wife uses a Pampered Chef Stoneware cookie sheet in the bottom of the oven and has cured the heating and cooking issues in the oven. The temps stay consistent and she says it bakes just like a residential oven now.

Another trick is to set whatever you're baking on an air-bake cookie sheet if you have trouble with the bottom burning.

DW said that the stoneware took care of that issue too.

Re: Uneven cooking in oven

We've used both a pizza stone and a ceramic tile. They both work well. If the fit is tight, the tile/stone might split but that's just fine. It will still do the job.

Do you remove the glass turntable and use the stone instead? Also, I am assuming you still use the metal pan?

Hi WendyMarilla,

Welcome to the Heartland Owners Forum and to the family. We have a great bunch of folks here with lots of information and all willing to share their knowledge when needed.

They are not talking about the Microwave/Convection Oven. The subject is about the regular cook stove and oven. Lots of folks put a stone in or near the bottom of the oven to help distribute the heat more evenly in the oven.

In case anyone notices,, I merged the two threads together "Baking food in the oven" and "Uneven cooking in oven". Same subject.
