Best Answer
You can cook anything in a gas oven that you can cook in an electric oven. There might be a little extra moisture (due to the products of combustion), but some people consider that to be an advantage when baking bread and cooking roasts.

Because the heat coming from that main burner is so intense, the bottoms of your foods can start to burn long before the middle or top is done. If you can, avoid using dark-colored metal bakeware, as this absorbs more heat and speeds up cooking.What is the difference between baking in a gas oven and an electric oven?

Answer 2
There are two answers to this question, both are right and they disagree with each other.
Some ovens are better for certain things, electric ovens are good for pastries, gas is better for roasts.
An oven is an oven. A skilled cook can cook a pineapple upside down cake or high tea over a campfire, wood fired pizza oven, or commercial stove with equal panache!
There are differences between types of ovens, and some ovens are superior for certain tasks, but any functional oven can be used to bake almost anything. (Some wood fired bread and pizza ovens are very difficult to cook large roasts in.)
Answer 3
Everything can be cooked in a gas oven, but some things will be done differently. Anything thats needs heat from above (such as garlic bread) needs to be cooked in the broiler. That's the drawer at the bottom. Not a storage space!
