the pan will have to be on a different shelves but they might have to cook longer and what are u cooking it is alot easyer to anser the ?

If your pans are large and cover the entire shelf, it would probably not work because the heat would not be able to circulate well. But if the pans are small, yes, you can bake two. I usually increase baking time about 10 minutes for every one hour and it works well for me.

No problem. I do it often, especially when making a casserole dish (say lamb). I often bake parcels of another meat (say chicken) at the same time as the casserole.

Yes. In a convection oven the quantity of food being cooked - unlike in a microwave - doesn't much affect the cooking process. So, you could cook a roasting joint of meat, with a pan of vegetables sizzling away on another shelf, and an apple pie on a lower shelf.

Bon appetite!

In a standard oven as long as you can scatter the two pans so each has open heat from the oven bottom you can cook them at the same time. You have problems if you place 2 pans one over the other because the bottom one will grab the majority of the heat and cook faster while the top one will cook quicker around the edges but the middle and bottom will remain uncooked.

I try to put the pan most likely to sizzle and splatter on the higher shelf, with the other - say, a pie or casserole - on the lower shelf. This avoids having to scrub the bottom of the pan on top. Rectangular dishes, longer than they are wide, are great for cooking two at once and allow for better circulation, but most modern ovens are fan-forced, so whichever pans you use should work okay.

Cakes and other dishes that need to rise are probably best cooked alone, or at least with other sweet dishes. Savoury dishes are fine cooked together because you don't risk transfer of savoury flavours to your cake.

Yes you can, just make sure to set two different timers if they require different amounts of time in the oven. No need to adjust the temperature. I have done this before and both dishes have come out perfectly.
