Can I Use Parchment Paper in an Oven?

Fine to do

• Use parchment clearly labeled oven-safe and follow the maximum temperature printed on its package.
• Cut the sheet to fit the pan so its edges cannot reach the oven walls, racks, or heating elements.
• Use conventional bake or convection bake only when the parchment packaging and oven manual permit it.
• Use it as a pan liner or parchment packet for ordinary baking and roasting.

Never do

• Never use parchment paper under a broiler.
• Never let it touch an open flame, heating element, oven wall, or oven floor.
• Never exceed the temperature rating on the package you own.
• Never assume another brand’s temperature limit applies to your parchment.
• Never substitute wax paper or freezer paper because it looks similar.
