Oven Cleaning Hack: Baking Soda + Vinegar Trick

What You Need:

• Baking soda (about ½ cup)

• White vinegar (in a spray bottle)

• Water

• Cloth or sponge

Steps:

1. Remove oven racks and sprinkle baking soda generously over the dirty oven surfaces (avoid heating elements).

2. Mix a little water with baking soda to make a spreadable paste and coat stubborn spots.

3. Let it sit overnight (or at least 8–12 hours). Baking soda loosens grease and grime gently.

4. Spray white vinegar over the baking soda. It will fizz—this reaction helps break down residue further.

5. Wipe everything away with a damp cloth or sponge. No harsh scrubbing needed!

6. Replace racks and enjoy your sparkling clean oven.

Why This Works

• Baking soda is a gentle abrasive and deodorizer.

• Vinegar’s acidity cuts through grease and helps dissolve baking soda residue.
