Two identical dishes - how do I adjust temp and time for two 9x13 pans instead of just one? It calls for one being baked at 350 for 40-45 minutes.
Best Answer
Likely no adjustment is necessary if they fit in your oven with good circulation. If it is a tight fit, you might want to add a few minutes, and/or rotate them halfway through the cooking. Your best approach is to simply measure the temperature of your product around the 45 minute mark and adjust from there.

How do you cook two dishes at different temperatures?
If one dish needs to be cooked at 350 degrees F and another at 400 degrees F, set the oven for 375. Most ovens are off by about 25 degrees anyway, so as long as it's set around the required temperature, the dish will turn out fine.Can you bake 2 dishes same time?
