There's no need for harsh chemical oven cleaners when natural, eco-friendly solutions can get the job done just as effectively.
Baked-on grease, burnt food splatters, and charred spills are no match for these green cleaning methods that are safe for you and the environment.
The Baking Soda Power Cleaner
Baking soda is a miracle worker for oven cleaning. Its abrasive texture combined with its alkaline properties make it perfect for breaking down stubborn, stuck-on messes.
To use:
Make a baking soda paste by mixing 1/2 cup baking soda with 2-3 tablespoons of water.
Spread it liberally over the entire oven interior and let sit for 20 minutes.
For extra degreasing power, spray with vinegar. It will react with the baking soda to release even more cleaning strength.
Let the fizzy mixture sit for 10 more minutes before scrubbing with a non-abrasive pad or brush.
Wipe out all the loosened grime with a damp cloth.
The Lemon Juice Trick
Lemon's citric acid is a natural degreasers that can help dissolve baked-on oven stains.
To use:
Cut a lemon in half and dip the cut side into baking soda, salt or cream of tartar to create an abrasive paste.
Rub the lemon all over the interior, squeezing out the juice as you go.
Let it sit briefly before using the lemon rind to scrub away any remaining spots.
Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
The Oven Liner Hack
An oven liner can minimize future stains and make cleanups much easier.
To use:
Place an oven-safe liner at the bottom before cooking anything messy.
When it gets too grimy, simply remove and replace the liner.
Look for liners made from PTFE-free materials like silicone or flexible fiberglass.
The Cream of Tartar Solution
For really stubborn, burnt-on stains, make a paste with 2 tablespoons cream of tartar and 1 tablespoon water.
To use:
Spread it over the problem areas and let sit overnight.
In the morning, scrub with a plastic pad and wipe clean.
With some patience and these eco-friendly cleaning methods, you can avoid toxic fumes and get your oven looking brand new again using just natural ingredients like baking soda, vinegar, lemon juice and cream of tartar. Maintaining a regular cleaning routine will also make tackling future stains much easier.
