I often want to cook double quantities from that stated in a recipe – say, twice the quantity of pasta bake or casserole (all in one dish), or two cakes instead of one (in separate tins).

So If you're doubling something that would take 1 hour to bake.
You may need to play around with the temperatures to make sure that you're not burning the outside.
