Oven to Microwave....Can it Work?

A certain reader of mine has consistently asked "What if you don't have an oven?"

Honestly, I have never tried converting an oven recipe to a microwave one. So I tried to find some articles on the subject. They are harder to come by than I thought. More articles were on converting microwave recipes to oven ones. Not sure why, but that's how it was.

I did find one article that was decent. So, working backwards, subtract 1/4 c. of the original amount of water and/or liquid. Then, the time in the microwave is three-fourths of the time used for the oven. So, time x 4/3=time for the microwave.

Hope this helps!

  1. It really takes longer in the microwave than in the oven??
    Never would have guessed that.
