What 200°C is used for

Moderately hot oven

200°C is Gas Mark 6. It is 392°F, so slightly cooler than the 400°F you see in American recipes, but the two are used interchangeably for roasting vegetables, chicken pieces and bread.

Typical uses at this heat: roast chicken, muffins, lasagne, bread.

Not sure your oven really reaches 200°C? Many ovens run hotter or cooler than the dial. See how to check your oven’s temperature.

How to convert 200°C to °F

Multiply by 9, divide by 5, then add 32:

200 × 9 ÷ 5 = 360
360 + 32 = 392°F

The quick “double it and add 30” trick gives 430°F, which is 38°F too high at this temperature. That’s fine for weather but not for baking, so use the exact figure.
