You can. Look for recipes involving "coddled eggs". They can be baked in all ovens, but if you suspect yours is a little on the hot side, bake them in a water bath.

Do gas convection oven bake as well as electric convection ovens?

The difference is the way the heat is produced. In an electric oven electricity runs through the heating element to produce heat. In a gas oven there is a gas jet that is actually burning, lit by the pilot light and that is how the heat is produced. The gas oven is superior for cooking, but required you to have gas lines in your house and comes with the added risk of flamable gas. <><><> The easy answer is that a gas oven uses gas to heat and an electric oven uses electricity <><><> Using gas, you have the required heat in seconds, not minutes if using an electrical oven. Its just easier to change the temperature level on a gas oven, and faster. People who are used to cooking with gas have time issues with electric ovens. <><><> An electric convection uses electric bake and broil elements and one or more fans in the back of the oven to circulate heat, this is called either fan assist baking or "convection" HOWEVER,,, in order to be a "true convection", "europian convection", or "true europian convection", it MUST HAVE A THIRD ELEMENT!!! The third element is located behind the fan/fans in the back of the oven. If there's not a third element on an electric range, it is not a true convection oven. With gas, typically, it will just be a fan assist bake using gas heat. However, if it is a true convection, europian convection, or true europian convection, it will have an electric-yes electric- element behind the fan/fans that is run off of the 120 outlet just like the electronic ignighters and digital controls.

Simply spritz the water using a couple of quick sprays, then shut the oven door immediately to prevent the steam from escaping.If it's something else you're baking and want to use a pan of water below it to prevent the bottom from becoming too brown, this can be safely done if both types of ovens, too.
