Properly Lining Baking Tray with Baking Paper

[EdwardGuerra]

Hi
I'm struggling to properly line my baking tray with baking paper without it curling up or moving around while I pour in the batter or place the dough.

Any tips or techniques from the community to ensure the paper stays in place and provides an even surface for baking?

if the tray is damp the paper will roll up.
a dab of grease or batter will stick it in place but make sure the trays are dry.

Absolutely! To begin, cut a piece of baking paper slightly larger than your baking tray. Gently press the paper into the corners and sides of the tray, allowing any excess to drape over the edges. If the paper seems loose, a small amount of butter or dough can be used to secure it in place.

Simply trim away any excess paper for a clean finish. Now your baking tray is lined and ready for use! It's that easy.
