When I make banana bread, which is the only bread I make of this type, I just spray the loaf pan with Pam. Seems to work for me:) What does the parchment paper do for your bread? Just curious.

It saves the need for Pam or butter or oil on the pan .... meaning less washing after the fact!
The cookies just lift right off and do not "glue" themselves to the cookie sheet.
Loaves lift right out of their pans.

The few times I've used it for zucchini bread - all of the loaf comes out of the pan!

I buy the parchment paper bread tin liners, lazy option and if making breads for fairs then they look professional, :D

I use it for cookies, do not need butter or coconut oil. Wish I would have discovered this years ago! My daughter bought it, now I would not be without it! Will have to try it for breads.

I also use it while sewing. Makes a wonder and inexpensive pressing sheet when doing fusible appliqué to keep ironing surface clean. When the paper gets messy, usually after several uses, simply toss.

I often just use a very light coating of what ever "grease" i have on the pan to and press in the paper. No grease on the paper. Sometimes I just lightly mist the pan with water, add paper, add cake or bread mixture and Ta-Da pop into the oven and bake as normal. I have never greased the parchment paper like Martha S. Keeping the extra calories reserved for other purposes. :D

I use glass loaf pans when I bake bread. I butter and flour the dish before I put my dough or batter in, never had it stick.
