Large Capacity Toaster Oven

When cooking large meals for the entire family, or for a group of friends, you want a large capacity toaster oven that can handle these large serving sizes of food. This higher capacity means you are able to prepare additional portions of food at one time.

The first thing you want to do is to determine the amount of shelf space within the toaster oven. Some toaster ovens claim to have the largest dimensions, but have been known to have trouble fitting 6 slices of toast. A good rule of thumb when looking for a toaster oven with a larger capacity is determining whether the depth of its racks can hold a 12 inch pizza.

For most, the size is probably the most important determining factor, but you will also want to take into consideration the amount of countertop space that it takes up.

The  trade-off is that you want a small footprint on your kitchen countertop, but at the same time want as much interior space as possible within the oven itself, with enough capacity to be able to handle any size portions.

Although toaster ovens can be compact and small, some kitchens may not have enough open counter space to fit one. As such, it is best to check the exterior dimensions first to confirm that it will be the perfect fit.

When it comes to large capacity toaster ovens, interior space is key, which is why I found this Black and Decker 6-Slice Convection Toaster Oven to be a great option.

With its extensive interior cooking space, it can fix up to 6 pieces of bread or even a 12 inch pizza with ease.

Browning knobs allow you to set your ideal toast level, while the oven sets the appropriate cook time accordingly depending on what you plan on making.

Additionally, it contains a timer knob to adjust the cook time, as well as pre-set cooking option knobs to perform functions such as Bake, Keep Warm, Broil and Toast.

It also comes with a baking and broiler pan that fits perfectly in the oven, and the large durable glass window helps give you a clear view of your food throughout the cooking process.

Additionally, a removable crumb tray helps catch any crumbs that may fall through the racks when cooking, simplifying any cleanup.

Countertop space is very important especially if you have a small kitchen, which is why this Hamilton Beach Countertop Oven is suited to perform as one part rotisserie and one part convection toaster in one appliance.

Flexible enough to handle a range of cooking tasks such as broiling fish, baking up a batch of cookies, roasting a 5 pound chicken, or even baking a cake.

Its wide-ranging interior and cooking racks are fully adjustable, provide customizable extra space for cooking larger portions of food, while also eliminating any additional time it takes to cook separate meals.

Its extra-large capacity can fit up to 2 large pizzas (up to 12 inches), 2 cakes, or 2 casserole dishes (up to 9 inches x 13 inches).

Ideal for anyone who may have limited space in their apartment, providing quick and easy access for elderly folks who enjoy cooking, or as a nice addition or replacement to the office microwave.

A digital display on a toaster oven is definitely one of those features that allow you quickly and easily determine pertinent cooking information at a glance. The best toaster oven I found that includes these digital features is this Oster Large Capacity Countertop Digital Convection Toaster Oven.

Its buttons are simple to read and use, which allow precise control over everything such as the temperature, functions, and cook time.

The oven contains convection technology providing for the thorough distribution of heat throughout for more rapid, but even cooking results.

A vast array of pre-set functions include Bake, Convection Bake, Boil, Pizza, Warm, Toast, and Defrost. Its black, and brushed stainless silver aesthetic helps complement the modern décor, while its clean outlined buttons are easy to read and operate.

The interior of the oven is also very spacious, being able accommodate food items such as chicken, casseroles, frozen pizza, or even a pan of rolls or cookies.

To gain additional internal space, its cooking racks have two options to be repositioned and adjusted in order to accommodate taller or larger sized foods.

Some of its other features include a removable crumb tray for simple cleanup, an interior oven light, and a window built into the door to quickly check on the status of your food.

The goal of being able to cook up much larger portions of food is now within our reach. It is definitely the perfect additional to our small kitchen!
