Introduction:
Anyone who loves to bake knows the frustration of scrubbing baked-on crusts from sheets and pans. Whether it’s pizza, cookies, or bread, crusts can stick stubbornly, making cleanup a tedious chore. However, what if we told you there’s an easy method to make cleanup effortless and save time in the kitchen? This simple trick, using a special crust baking sheet, has transformed the way many bakers approach cleanup. Not only does it save time, but it also helps preserve your baking sheets, keeping them in great condition for longer. Let’s dive into this clever technique that will revolutionize your kitchen routine!
Ingredients:
Non-stick baking parchment or silicone baking mat (enough to line your baking sheet)
Baking sheet
Baking items of choice (cookies, bread, pizza, etc.)
Instructions:
1. Prepare Your Baking Sheet:
The first step in this easy cleanup method is to line your baking sheet with either non-stick baking parchment or a silicone baking mat. These materials are designed to prevent food from sticking, and they create a protective barrier between your crust and the baking surface.
For parchment paper, simply lay a sheet large enough to cover the bottom of the baking sheet and extend slightly over the edges to catch any drips. If you’re using a silicone baking mat, just place it directly on the sheet.
2. Place Your Food on the Lined Sheet:
Once your baking sheet is lined, place your food on top—whether it’s pizza dough, cookie dough, or bread rolls. The parchment or silicone mat will prevent the food from sticking and ensure the crust comes off easily once baked.
