A top cover is provided for covering the top opening of said housing, the top cover having an interior wall and an interior partition, with the interior partition defining a space between the top cover interior wall and the interior partition. A baking chamber having interior and exterior surfaces, the baking chamber positioned within the housing to form an air space between the interior surface of the housing and the exterior surface of the baking chamber is also provided. The baking chamber defines an opening covered by the partition. A baking pan made of a heat-conductive material is also provided, the baking pan positioned within the baking chamber to define an air space between the interior surface of the baking chamber and the baking pan. A first centrifugal impeller is mounted within the cover and configured to supply and circulate heated air to the air space defined between the interior surface of the baking chamber and the baking pan. A second centrifugal impeller mounted within the cover and configured to supply cool air to the space defined between the interior surface of the housing and the exterior surface of the baking chamber and between the interior wall of the top cover and the partition.
