At what temperature do you bake stuffed shells?

[Joseez]

Hey everyone! I’m gearing up to make some stuffed shells for dinner and was wondering about the best oven temperature for baking them. I’ve seen recipes suggesting anywhere from 350°F to 375°F. It seems like a moderate oven ensures the shells are heated through without drying out the filling or scorching the cheese on top. Plus, baking at these temperatures allows the flavors to meld beautifully under a bubbly, golden-brown top. What’s your go-to temperature for baking stuffed shells to perfection? Would love to gather some consensus or tips from your experiences! ☺

I often bake stuffed shells at 375 degrees- It is exactly the right temperature for the melted cheese on top to be soft while the filling is juicy. Take my word for it, you will get a light brown and not a dry outcome.

I think baking stuffed shells at 375°F (190°C) works well. It ensures the shells cook through without burning the cheese topping though!
