How to Clean Your Cookie Sheets

Introduction

Cookie sheets can quickly accumulate baked-on grease, crumbs, and stains. Proper cleaning not only keeps them looking great but also extends their lifespan and ensures your baked goods taste their best.

Step-by-Step Cleaning Instructions
1. Cool and Rinse

Allow the cookie sheet to cool completely after use.

Rinse it under warm water to remove loose crumbs and residue.

2. Soak for Stubborn Stains

Fill your sink or a large basin with warm water.

Add a few drops of dish soap.

Let the cookie sheet soak for 10–15 minutes to loosen baked-on grease.

3. Scrub Gently

Use a non-abrasive sponge or soft brush.

For tough spots, sprinkle baking soda directly on the stain and scrub gently in a circular motion.

Avoid steel wool or harsh scouring pads—they can scratch and damage nonstick surfaces.

4. Rinse and Dry
