Never thought parchment paper had issues. Can you use something like cheese cloth for baking, to prevent sticking?

You can't use grease with butter when you're baking at 500F, genius.

I mean, line my cookie sheets with parchment paper? Who am I, Martha Stewart. No I won't.

The toll house chocolate chip cookies come out a lot better on parchment for me.


I never need it, but I have high quality baking pans.

Use untreated sheets or foil

Read recently the suggestion to use butcher’s paper instead of parchment paper for the reason OP stated as a concern. Likely similar/ same as brown paper grocery bags another PP suggested.

I have used cut up paper bags, the brown ones from the grocery store, before.

I've started making no knead bread with parchment paper and I didn't know that parchment paper has PFAS - I'll see if the brown paper from the paper bags works for no knead bread.

I have no alternative suggestions, but I had no idea people hated it!

I use parchment paper a lot, but I also into sourdough baking and there are certain cases where it just doesn't work, so I have a trick or two to get things done without it

Even better - mix oil and sunflower liquid lecithin (2:1 ratio) for best ever grease
