I wanted to make a quick post about "pan grease." I listed it my Getting Started Part 1 post, so this is a follow up so everyone knows what the heck I'm talking about!
When preparing your pans to bake, the “traditional” method is to grease with shortening or butter and then dust with flour to prevent sticking. Some people add a layer of parchment paper on the bottom. More conventional approaches are baking sprays such as Pam or Bakers Joy (with or with out flour in the spray). Those methods work fairly well, but I have discovered the easiest way of all! Pan Grease! You can buy “Pan Release” or other pre-made pan greases, but it is so easy to make your own.
Ingredients
- Shortening
- Vegetable Oil
- Flour
Directions
- Mix equal parts of the ingredients.

Happy Caking :)
