Of course, it is best to use baking paper and clean the baking tray immediately after each use. However, this does not always work – and stubborn incrustations form. And now? Our tips for cleaning baking trays can help. Even without chemicals.
Clean baking tray – with baking soda
You don’t have to use chemicals to clean your baking sheet. Baking powder, for example, works just as well. Simply fill the tin with water and put a packet of the powder in it. You can wipe away dirt after just half an hour. Proceed in a similar way if you want to use baking soda to clean the baking tray. To do this, spread 50 grams on the tray filled with water. After that, wait a few hours. If the dirt is more stubborn, use three packets of baking soda and mix the mixture with a little water until it foams. Now put the mixture on the incrustations and let everything soak overnight. Or you can use baking soda (as with light soiling), but place the tray in the oven at 100 degrees bottom heat for about 20 minutes. If you want to clean your ceramic hob, baking soda is also ideal.
More home remedies for clean baking sheets
There are other home remedies for cleaning a baking sheet. Which are they? Cleaning baking trays can also be done with salt, for example! To do this, apply it generously to dirty areas – and then put the sheet in the oven for half an hour to an hour. Temperatures should be around 50 degrees there. When the salt is slightly brown, throw it away and wipe the pan. You can also clean a baked baking tray with vinegar. You put it in the oven for that too. This time for 20 minutes, but at 200 degrees. Previously, you covered the bottom of the baking sheet with a thin layer of vinegar. At the end you can tip it away and wipe off any dirt.

Now place one or two dishwasher tabs on the baking sheet and pour boiling water over everything until the bottom of the baking sheet is covered. You can even leave the mixture on overnight to remove particularly stubborn dirt. At the end you simply wipe everything off – and then you can, for example, prepare our delicious sheet cake with juicy plums and crispy crumbles.
