150 degrees Celsius equals
302°F
Nearest US oven setting: 300°F
What 150°C is used for
Moderately slow oven
150°C is Gas Mark 2. Rich fruit cakes, such as Christmas cake, usually bake low and slow at around 140–150°C so the outside doesn’t burn before the middle is cooked.
Typical uses at this heat: casseroles, baked cheesecake, shortbread.
Not sure your oven really reaches 150°C? Many ovens run hotter or cooler than the dial. See how to check your oven’s temperature.
How to convert 150°C to °F
Multiply by 9, divide by 5, then add 32:
270 + 32 = 302°F
The quick “double it and add 30” trick gives 330°F, which is 28°F too high at this temperature. That’s fine for weather but not for baking, so use the exact figure.
