How to Line a Baking Tin


  1. Grease the tin
  2. For the base: 
    1. Cut a piece of greaseproof paper slightly larger than the diameter of the tin squared
    2. Fold the sheet in half, then in quarter, then in eights (it should be the shape of a pointy triangle with an untidy end).
    3. Measure the paper with the pointy end in the middle and trim the edges so that it fits inside the tin.
    4. Open it out and you should have a piece of greaseproof paper roughly the size of the base of your tin.
  3. For the sides:
    1. Measure the circumference of tin and add 3cm, Measure the height of the tin and add 4cm
    2. Cut a piece of greaseproof paper to these measurements.
    3. Make cuts along the length of paper 2cm deep to form a fringe. Fold these cuts upwards.
    4. Place inside the tin along the sides with the fringe inside. 
  4. Insert the base.
