I have a air bake cookie sheet in mine right now, still buns the biscuits and rolls somewhat. I'm looking into buying a pampered chef retangular baking stone. They come in all different sizes.

We have been successfuly with ours with the combination approach - put a pizza stone in the bottom, use airbake pans and use an oven thermometer to make sure the temperature is correct. We have found our oven runs about 25 degrees higher than the setting says.

Simply go to Lowes or Home Depot and buy yourself one or two 12 or 14 inch unglazed ceramic tiles for maybe $1.79 each and place in the oven. They will absorb heat and allow the oven to bake evenly. If they ever are broken just go buy another one. Why spend money on something that might do the trick at four or five times the price.

I use mine all the time seldom with the results I want… I have the tile in it and haven’t noticed it being much better… the rack is just to close to the burner to get good results on most things

Got rid of the RV gas oven and put it a Fisher Paykel dishdrawer then replaced microwave with a Whirlpool Convection Speedcook Oven

The oven grills, bakes, nukes and is very easy to clean. 16" turn table easily accommodates 9x13 cake pan.


That sort of really hampers boondocking and just using LP for cooking in the oven. I also know I would never buy a used RV that did not have some sort of LP oven in it for cooking when needed so you could have reduced the value of your RV when trading or selling it when the time comes.

Most of the solutions is to get something between the heat from the burner and what you are cooking on. You could use ceramic tiles, pizza stones, or even something like a round or square cookie type sheet turned upside down that spreads the heat out first before hitting the actual pan you are cooking in. I have never had an issue and when doing things like biscuits or a pan cake I just set the timer and rotate it some in the oven and cook it on a slightly lower temp ... maybe 50 deg to prevent any burning.

This is camping and it's like burning hot dogs on a stick, it's just what happens in a home on wheels w/o a $5,000 gourmet oven like in your home.

Pizza stone works great. But the vibration driving down the road broke 2. Guess I could put them away......

Most important is air circulation so don't use too large a cookie sheet or tile/stone

I use an air bake cookie sheet in my RV oven and cook and bake everything on top of it. I've never burnt anything since I started using an air bake cookie sheet. However, I am not saying it can't be done if you let things overbake

IMHO - an airbake cookie sheet won't break and it's not as heavy as a pizza stone or tile.
