Mix baking soda with a little warm water until it forms a thick spreadable paste.
Apply to the oven interior
Spread the paste over greasy areas—especially the bottom and sides. Avoid heating elements.
Spritz with vinegar
Pour vinegar into a spray bottle and lightly mist over the baking soda. It will foam—this loosens grime.
Wait 10–15 minutes
The fizzing action lifts stuck-on grease quickly.
Wipe clean
Use a damp cloth to remove the paste. Stubborn spots wipe away easily.
✨ Your oven will look instantly refreshed—no scrubbing required.
