Abstract: An oven for baking batter goods, in particular, a wafer oven, has several baking plates assigned to one another in pairs, and at least one heat source for tempering or heating the baking plates. Particularly efficient production of wafers or similar products can be achieved in that the baking plates are mounted in a wheel-like carrier that can be rotated about an axis so that they extend essentially radially away from the axis, at a distance from it. Furthermore, at least one heat exchanger may be assigned to the baking plates, in each instance, through which a medium tempered by a heat source and supplied by way of a ring line flows.
