My silicon Bakeware burns my buns!?!

Question:

My silicon Bakeware burns my buns!?

Ok not buns but bread. I use an upper rack on the oven but not the topmost rack because I am afraid that the bread will rise too much and stick to the top of my oven. Do you think that a metal baking sheet under the loaf pan would help? And if it would help should I put it directly under it or on the lower rack. Any advice will help thanks!

I sure would like to bite into some nice soft buns slathered with butter.

If your buns are burning on the bottm, then the baking sheet sounds like a good idea to help diffuse the heat.

Also, is your oven thermostat set properly?
You can reduce the temperature 25 degrees without effecting the recipe too much.

Why not just get a bread machine? Why so complicated?

I use silicon, too. I had usually start checking anything that I'm baking at about 1/2 the suggested cooking time. Also, try reducing the heat that you cook at by 25 degrees. I love the silicon because it cooks so fast, but I did ruin a couple of dishes before figuring this out.
