How to Prepare a Baking Pan

I learned this trick a few years back and I don't like to prepare my baking pans any other way. Hopefully this trick works well for you.

See the video for visual instructions

1. Using a 8 or 9" round pan
2. Tear a sheet of parchment paper the length of the pan
3. Fold the top corner of the paper toward the opposite end and cut the excess off of the bottom (making a square)
4. You really need to see the video for the rest because it is hard to explain how to do the folds
5. measure the radius of the bottom of the pan and cut the paper. Unfold and you will end up with a circle that should fit perfectly in the pan.
