can it be used for conventional baking?

Yes, it absolutely can and it works wonderfully! I use it daily for both toasting and baking/cooking and reheating foods. I've had mine for a few months and I love it!

I found that it can be used for baking cookies, muffins, tarts, lasagna, and brownies just fine. I have not tried cakes. The size though can be an issue and its best not to have a pan that "just fits" or the edges of the pan don't cook as well as the center. It is trial and error to find the right temperature sometimes but its like that with conventional ovens too. In general, I would say that yes it works for conventional baking as long as you decrease the size appropriately for the size of the oven.

I know it can be built in and you can buy a trim kit. The problem is the heat generated if you use the conventional oven at the same time as you use this oven

I did use it to bake some cakes. I followed the same baking instructions as I do for any mini cupcake silicone bake molds. Unfortunately the cakes didn't pop out very well due the type of batter I used. Unless it is an extremely dense cake or brownie batter it won't come out easily or have any real detail to it. I mostly use them for making chocolates and flan now.

I think it can! I used it tons of times for a paleo mug cake (quickly bake in the microwave). I never fully baked with it, but Im sure it would be fine!

Even though, I am sure you could... I wouldn't recommend it, since it isn't rigid; unless you will be using the oven racks as a "psedo-cookie sheet," then perhaps it could be done.

it can be used for pastry flour but I use it mainly for cake baking because in is a much finer flour than all purpose flour. Therefore cakes are lighter in texture when baking.

No, not at all. I use it in most of my baking and love it. The baked goods tend to be less dense than with regular flour.

If it's safe for a conventional oven I don't see why it couldn't be used in a toaster oven, as long as it fits.

It would probably give you a really weird texture. It absorbs liquid. I use it in small amounts for baking

You can try. The temp control is very unstable and ended up baking or under heating 2 batches before we have up on this unit. Total waste of $$$!

I wouldn't. It should be used for baking in the oven. I use it for baking cakes.

Yes that should work. It works like a regular baking pan. Check it at 15 to twenty minute intervals to ensure proper cook time.

No, I don't think it could be used to make plain cookies as it needs a patterned disc at the end.

Yes, you can use this to bake mini angel food cakes, if you don't mind them being in the bundt style instead of the traditional plain, rounded tube style.

Yes, you can bake w/ it. Since I haven't actually done it myself, I don't know whether you'd have to do anything differently.

You can use it for anything you would use flour for. It is just a lot denser than regular flour so you must use it sparingly.

Yes, you can! I use it in some dishes, mainly sweet baked goods. However, I CAN taste it. Especially if I fry on it. The least pleasant experience I had--is frying fish on it---taste was terrible. So now I just avoid frying on it.
