Has anyone made muffins and cakes in it? What kind of bakeware do I need for baking?

I have not made muffins or a cake in it yet, but I bake in the convection oven all the time for other things. I use the defrost button a lot also. As far as cookware, you can use just about any kind youwant. Metal, Corningware it doesn't matter. This is one of the best purchases I have made in a long time. I use it every day, well worth the money. It took the place of me having to have a toaster oven and a microwave.

I cooked for many years in an older model sharp convection oven. I found anything I could cook in an oven I could cook in a convection microwave ie hams, baked Mac n cheese, sweet potato pie....I used Corelle casserole pots and non stick baking pans. I believe I cooked at 25 degrees less than recommended temps for black nonstick pans (just like a regular oven). I really enjoyed having the convection microwave during the hollidays. While the turkey was cooking in the regular oven, I could cook everything else in my convection oven! Enjoy:)

I have only used it to roast meat & vegetables & as microwave. I have a ceramic tart pan & clay pizza dishes that work very well on convection, micro, & roast. Have only made 1 scratch pizza - not yet mastered. Love the machine; would buy it again.

Have baked biscuits and muffins using round metal cake pan and rack provided with oven. Definitely not a piece of "crap." I'd give it 4 stars and use it almost every day.

I don't own one of these, but have owned silicone bakeware in the past, and have had mixed results with it. Silicone is a good insulator of heat, and so you'll likely need to increase the recipe temperature slightly (if it's still in the tolerable range of the material, which I believe is 450 for silicone bakeware, but don't quote me on that.) When you bake with it, like any silicone item, you'll want to place it on a cookie sheet, and use plenty of Baker's Joy or Pam with flour, or grease and flour, as this is NOT non stick by any means.Hope this helps!

I haven't had to use liners. I spray the pans with non-stick spray when I make omelet muffins, and today I made cupcakes and sprayed them with Wilton's Bake Easy (the equivalent of flouring a pan). They came out fine. You can use liners if you want tho.

I don't know which muffin pan will fit these molds, but I have these and pop them on a baking tray with no problems (even full) - no muffin pan needed! Hope this helps.

Yes it would make a cake. The mix says right on it: Gingerbread Cake & Cookie mix. I use it to make a square pan of gingerbred and ocassionally a loaf pan style.

I have used the pans. It was fun using these. One problem is the cake will make 4 (2) layer cakes. You get 4 pans and will have to make these in 2 batches unless you buy another set of pans. The recipe calls for a regular cake mix and you just split the batter between the pans. Glad I bought them. It's a little different for me.

I'e had no problems with cakes sticking in this pan. I do use Pam in it first. I love it.

I love the pan because it is very heavy metal. Not cheap stuff. I would think banana bread would be good if you want it square. I like mine in a bundt pan that has a little shape. I used it for an oversides pound cake.Hope this helps.Donna

There is enough space to bake 12" pizza, so if you have 12 inch pan, you can. Most pans are 9x13 which is not good. I would suggest silicon for baking cup cakes or cakes. Sorbus® 12 Cup Silicone Muffin & Cupcake Baking Pans, Non-Stick, Easy To Clean, Oven / Microwave / Dishwasher / Freezer safe, Heat Resistant Up To 450°F

I don't use liners either but I use mine for appetizers and just sprayed the pan but haven't made muffins.

I returned mine because the timer does not work, it's stuck and it won't move at all so I bought another one - Sunpentown, super turbo oven, so2000. I bake cake in mine using metal pans. But it's easy to burn it so start with low temp setting and keep watching it until you get the hang of it. Hope this helps.

There is no baking pan with this kit. I believe the oven comes with a baking pan, or else you can purchase one seperately.

Use parchment paper along with flour and butter (or chocolate powder and flour if making chocolate cake)

although I have not tried it, yes, you can bake in these. Amazon has a number of books regarding desserts in a jar (meaning the mason jar). Google "cake in a jar" and you will find many hits.
