3. Oven Liners: Prevent the Mess Before It Starts
Invest in non-stick oven liners or place a baking sheet on the lower rack to catch spills and drips. This simple step can dramatically cut down on buildup and make future cleaning a breeze.
Bonus Tips to Make Oven Cleaning Even Easier
- Clean spills right away: Wipe messes when the oven cools down to avoid hardened buildup.
- Soak oven racks in the bathtub: Use hot water, dish soap, and dryer sheets or baking soda for easy grime removal.
- Use a steam-clean method: Fill an oven-safe dish with water and vinegar, bake at 250°F for 30 minutes, then wipe down the loosened grime.
