Baking and cooking in your RV are great once you know about your unit and how it works. We all know how a microwave works as it is efficient and fast and it is also good for heating things fastly. As most of us know that how a regular oven cooks food. In an Arabic conventional oven, the source of heat is blown by fans so that the heated air goes all over the inside of the oven.

As with most appliances, the convection oven also has a learning curve. Once you become familiar with one appliance, not a specific unit, and dried out different recipes then I promise you that you will have the confidence to bake and cook many other recipes.


Advantages of convection oven

  • Most of the recipes can be cooked at almost 20% lower temperature.
  • Roasts the brown quickly and seals in their juices.
  • Baked pastries and other baked goods rise higher.
  • Crust made by convection oven is lighter and has a flakey crisp crust
  • The Browning on baked goods, casserole roasts, and other things is more evenly distributed, and call sports that are produced in typical traditional ovens are also eliminated.
  • Casseroles develop a creamier center.
  • Adding flavor and crispness the fruits and vegetables can be easily caramelized.

Some RV convection ovens function by using the guidelines and instructions on propane units.

In one RV convection oven, ten temperature selections are ranging from 100 F to 425 F. The function between these temperature ranges is also set while you select the temperature located in small print buttons.

The temperature increases by 50 degrees on our particular unit.


How to Pre-heat and then cook in the RV convection oven

  • First of all press the connection button.
  • select the desired temperature where you want to cook your food. In case you are not following the convection recipe but you are applying the recipe which is written for standard oven then you should lower the temperature by 25 F so that that convection cooking method can be adjusted. As we know that convection overcooks your food 20 to 25% faster than other ovens. If you are new to two convection ovens then you should start by applying a convection oven recipe.
  • Press the start button and once the cooking temperature is reached open the oven door.
  • put the rack of the convection oven on the table.
  • Put an oven-safe dish of food on a convection rack and then close the oven door.
  • you should check to ensure that the dish that you have selected to put in the convection rack fits in it and then clears all the sides by at least one inch so that the dish does not stick to the convection oven walls when the food is rotating and cooking on turntable.
  • Press the desired length of cook time for example 30 minutes of cooking time. to set several minutes you must press the number keys. You can also press the desired number of seconds if no seconds need to be added then you can add zero and then zero again.

Now if you want to cook your food for 30 minutes and no seconds then you will press 3000. If you only press 30 then your food will only cook for 30 seconds. Now press the start button. After that, the oven will beef and it will stop cooking for the pre-set time.


You can also stop the cooking process by pressing the pause button. You can check your food item in between the cooking process and then close the door and start again. If you want to add more cooking time after the three selected time is over then you can follow the previous instructions again as I have mentioned above. In case you are baking a cake then you should not open the door until 10 minutes before the baking time. This is because you will interfere with the making process of cake and it will not rise properly. Your cake can be collapsed when you open the door sooner than 10 minutes because of heat interruption as the rising agents for example baking soda and baking powder are still working to rise the cake.
