Not sure your oven really reaches 230°C? Many ovens run hotter or cooler than the dial. See how to check your oven’s temperature.
How to convert 230°C to °F
Multiply by 9, divide by 5, then add 32:
414 + 32 = 446°F
The quick “double it and add 30” trick gives 490°F, which is 44°F too high at this temperature. That’s fine for weather but not for baking, so use the exact figure.
