Oven Temperature FAQs
What is 350°F in Celsius and Gas Mark?↓
350°F equals 175°C in a conventional oven (or 160°C in a fan-forced convection oven), and corresponds to UK Gas Mark 4.
How do you adjust recipes for a fan-assisted (convection) oven?↓
In a fan-assisted oven, heat distributes more rapidly. Reduce the conventional temperature by 20°C (approx 25°F to 35°F) or decrease the baking time by about 10–15%.
