Toaster Oven Perfection: A Smarter Way to Cook on a Smaller Scale Paperback – December 22, 2020
Purchase options and add-ons
If you've found yourself only using the toaster oven to toast bread or heat up leftovers, your toaster oven is woefully underutilized. A toaster's abilities are myriad (it can do many things a regular oven can do, and some even air fry), and ATK shows you how to tap into them, from making mini meatloaves, pizza, and a whole roast chicken, to baking individual ramekin desserts. Whether you are a habitual host, the owner of a new toaster oven, or someone with limited space, this is the book for you.
Our sheet-pan dinners for two take advantage of every inch of your toaster oven's pan and makes your main dish and sides in one go (think Pork Tenderloin with Green Beans). Or, enlist your toaster oven to...
- Roast up a vegetable side dish (no jostling for oven space) with recipes for Brussels sprouts, broccoli, and more
- Bake easy appetizers like wings, empanadas, and granola (tastier and fresher than store bought)
- Make meals with a range of serving sizes; feeding 1 person to as many as 8
- Embrace the joys of small-batch baking with freeze-and-bake cookies and scones: bake off a couple at a time and they'll always come out hot and fresh.
We draw upon our extensive testing of toaster ovens to help you navigate the variety of models and recipes were tested across a range of models to ensure it will work in yours.

Things to know about this book:
-I previously had a smaller, traditional toaster oven that cost about 30 bucks and could hold about two pieces of toast at a time. My new one can hold a small frozen pizza and probably a roast chicken. And that’s really the size of toaster oven that will benefit most from the recipes here. The book recommends using a 13x9 baking sheet and baking pan for many recipes, so consider if this makes sense to you.
-Many recipes are scaled down (geared toward servings of two versus a more traditional 4, for example) but you’re often given advice about how to adapt if you want to cook for more servings.
-I find cookbook reviews on Amazon vary greatly depending on what the reviewer is used to cooking/eating (“recipes are too fancy!” And “recipes are boring” on the same book!). Here are some sample recipes in the book to help you know what’s in here:
-Weeknight Roasted Chicken with Lemon and Thyme
-No-Boil Baked Ziti
-Baked Crostini w/Oven Jam and Brie
-Chicken Souvlaki
-Moroccan Fish and Couscous Packets
-Glazed Meatloaf
-Easy Chicken Enchiladas
Generally, this has a great variety of recipes if you like what ATK offers - meat and fish mains with one or two variations on each, casseroles, desserts, breakfasts, sides, and some small batch baking. Most importantly, the recipes include what I love most about ATK books, which is a “why” behind each recipe - why we added oil here, why we have you toast the panko crumbs before coating the meat there. To me, this helps you become a better cook and understand what was changed in adapting a simple recipe like chicken Parmesan to the toaster oven that could help you adapt other recipes that aren’t in this book to the toaster oven.
Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2023
First, I want to say that I have the oven pictured on the cover and it is not just a toaster oven. It is a mini convection oven with multiple settings and uses and totally worth the price. Breville makes a very well designed and useful product, the more I use it, the less I turn on my full-sized oven. I love to think about the savings to my electrical bill.
Second, the suggestions to buy a set of racks and certain pans to use for the recipes are worth it. I don't know why, but I did not have pan without handles that fully fits inside the Smart Oven and now that I do, I'm wondering how I lived without it!
I have tried the recipe for the Cheese Manicotti, Baked Ziti, Egg Sandwiches, and Loaded Baked Potatoes and a few others that I cannot recall right now. They all turned out excellent and were fairly easy to do.
Last nite I baked chicken hindquarters with a rub on them in the Smart Oven because I now feel confident using the oven more, thanks to this cookbook. Now I don't have to turn on my full sized oven nearly as much and I can cook most of my meal in the Smart Oven instead :)
