Just one of many cooking basics we love. (originally published 5/15)
How to Clean a Burnt Pan Without Baking Soda
I know I am not the only one who has burnt the heck out of their pots on the stove or a dish in the oven. Sometimes the baked on food that was usually forgotten about or I thought it was supposed to cook longer is almost impossible to scrub off.
I have actually gotten to the point where I’ve scrubbed, soaked, scrubbed, soaked for a few days. Was just about ready to throw it away and buy a new pot, then I tried this simple trick. I seriously love kitchen hacks! Got fabric sheets, or fabric softener at home???
No need to scrub those burnt drippings on your baking dishes or pans. Save your hands and time by using one of my favorite home remedies. Let the dryer sheets help you.
How to clean a burnt pan
- Step 1: Fill your pan with hot water
- Place 1-2 Dryer Sheets in your baking dish (as seen here).
- Soak overnight and let the magic happen!
- With the littlest amount of effort, wipe the dish with the dryer sheets and all the build up in your dish will be gone. Clean as normal.
How to Clean a Burnt Pot without Vinegar
- Seriously….it is that easy. You can almost wipe the stuck on stuff off with your fingertip in the morning, it cleans it so well!
- If you have fabric softener and not the sheets just put half a cap full on the bottom to coat it. Follow the steps as usual using a soft sponge in the morning. Dryer sheets are easier and better though. That’s how to clean a burnt pot or pan easily. 😉
No more worrying when you make an “uh oh” mistake on the stove or oven and burn your pot. When you know how to clean a burnt pot it’s easy to fix when you make a mistake (and you will).
Ready to try something new now that you’ve got all the gunk cleaned off your pot???

I have a burnt pan and I was going to use a dryer sheet or fabric softer on the softer do you add hot water and have it sit all night.
