Default Binding circles ?

I am having problems binding small circular projects such as trivets, pot holders and the like. The piece either forms a mound or a valley and will not lay flat. I use 2 1/2 inch bias tape and have tried easing it onto the front when I sew, steaming it, and reducing the seam allowance to 1/8 inch, but nothing seems to helps. Any suggestions to alleviate this problem are welcome and appreciated.
