When time is up: Begin checking at 15 min; a toothpick inserted in the center should have no raw batter. Timing covers baking only, not preparation; adjust for different pans or convection ovens.

Times are for guidance. Ingredient size, starting temperature, quantity and heat affect cooking. An alarm does not mean food is safely cooked; check doneness and continue cooking if needed. Adapt movement and rest to your abilities.
