How long to bake at 350 degrees when recipe calls for 400 degrees for 50 minutes?

Answer 1

If the temperature calls for 400 degrees for 50 minutes, it should be baked that way. However, if the temperature is set to 350 instead of 400, it should be baked for 50 minutes and then checked every few minutes until it is done so it does not get over-baked.

Answer 2

there is no set formula...it is a test as it goes. after one hour, check to see if it's ready...and check every 15 minutes after that until you feel it is done. if it's base is potatoes (shepards pie or scalloped potatoes, etc) then if the potatoes are soft then it's done...if it's meat, poultry, etc , make sure it's cooked (or perhaps use a thermometer). with cooking it at a lower temperature then is specified, you could run into problems...liquids don't evaporate like they should, doesn't cook the dish at the same rate in all spots, or it will become too dry from being cooked too long, even though it's at a lower temperature.

Answer 3

It will depend on what you are cooking and its shape. The length of time and temperature will also affect how brown things get and how dried out they will end up. A short high temperature cooking time will not dry things out s much as a long slow lower temperature cook.

Also, a short high temperature cook may not penetrate and cook the centre of a large object like a big loaf or cake or a big roast. So a slower lower cooking time will be needed.

Bread rolls are often cooked at a higher temperature and for a shorter time than a loaf for this reason.

Answer 4

I typically find that the difference is not exactly linear. something like thick crust Pizza baked for 15 minutes at 450 has to be baked 25 minutes at 400 or almost 40 minutes at 350. If the recipe calls for 450 use 450 if you can. If not check it after 40 minutes and again every 5 minutes until it's done. Lower temperatures often makes baked foods more chewy or less crispy.

Answer 5

Intriguing question. Most things cooking at 400 degrees are doing so for a good reason. Usually removing a lot of water or moisture and browning the outside of your dish. If 350 is all you can get I would add another 10 to 15 minutes, but check the center of the dish for doneness with a cooking thermometer.

Answer 6

You don't want to do that. You'll burn the outsides. Probably about 15-30 minutes longer.
