Make Your Own Oven Cleaner

1/2 cup liquid soap
1 1/2 cup baking soda
1/4 cup white vinegar
Water as needed to make a spreadable but thick paste

Making your own oven cleaner is super easy! Here is an awesome way to get your oven back to new!

Be sure to remove the racks from your oven and place them in the sink. Pour all of your ingredients into a bowl and mix well. Paint the entire surface of the inside of your oven with a paintbrush or toothbrush. Let it sit for 6-8 hours or overnight works well. You will be amazed at how it foams up just a little bit, kind of like the yucky chemical kind. It’s amazing how you can see all of the grease and grime being lifted right before your eyes.

Once the mixture has sat grab a clean bowl of warm water and start wiping down your oven with a cloth or sponge. You might have to change your water a few times, but that means it worked!! In minutes you will have an oven that looks great without all of those harsh chemicals and smells. Plus it’s CHEAP!
