no muffin cases left

Options
Has anyone got a sure fire way to make sure they don't stick? It is fairly new tin and was sold as not stick but up to now I have only used it with cases. I don't want to ruin the tin or waste a load of supplies making them.

    Provided you grease the tin well it'll be fine, I've done it before with fairy cakes and not had a problem. If you had the time/inclination you could put a circle of grease proof paper in the bottom of each hole but I don't think its really necessary.

    HTH's.
  • i generally find grease and dust with flour is best for basically any recipe, personally i find that stuff still sticks if i only grease it.

    May i suggest you invest in some silocone muffin cases, then you can reuse them and won't ever run out (theoretically). I got loads for xmas and have found them grreat!

  • I've seen people use squares of baking parchment in the muffin tins, they come out looking very rustic.

    I have just got a new oven having made do with the old one for far too long. You couldn't control the temp (it was always on gas mark 9!?!?)

    I remember looking at those cases a while ago and thinking well they wouldn't survive my oven but now I can buy them and know they will be fine! Thanks for the reminder! I'm off to see how cheap I can find them on-line. Can you suggest anywhere you have seen them cheap?

    If you can find a jam jar or bottle, plastic beaker roughly the size of your muffin trays, squish the paper over this first to form a sort of cup before popping them in.
  • They have gone up to £2.65 for a dozen in my local Asda now :-((
