Cleaning your oven glass is a royal pain since cleaning with regular glass cleaner will not break down the debris. Here's my oven cleaning hack to complete this ignoring task in under a minute.

Dirty Oven Glass

Supplies Needed

Most of already have the supplies needed in our kitchens.


  • Baking Soda
  • Aluminum foil
  • Hot water (about 1/4 of a cup)
  • Microfiber clothes

STEP 1

  1. Sprinkle baking soda across your oven glass.
  2. Add about 1/2 cup of boiling water.

STEP 2

  • Ball up foil so it can be used as your sponge AKA scrubber
  • Move the foil in circles motions to remove grime


As the alkaline baking soda reacts to the aluminum foil it helps break down the debris that is cake-on to your the glass on your oven.

STEP 3

To assist in wiping off the baking soda paste that was created during the cleaning process use a damp microfiber cloth.


Depending on the condition of the glass it may take a few wipe downs to remove the messy residue.


Lastly, use a clean microfiber cloth to buff the glass to a shine.


TIP: Try to get into the habit of using this cleaning method often. It will take a minute to remove all the debris and grease off your glass if you keep up with it.

    Can’t wait to try this but I noticed for supplies needed you’ve listed 1/4 cup hot water but in instructions you typed 1/2 cup. Which is correct?

  • Ruth Fitch Ruth Fitch on Oct 30, 2023

    Does it have to be baking soda or can you just use bicarbonate of soda?

    THIS EASY OFF IS ABSOLUTELY NO ODOR. I HAVE COPD AND I CANNOT HAVE STRONG SMELLS AROUND ME. LIKE I SAID, NO ODORS ONLY IS WHAT I CAN USE AND TO ME, THIS IS A MIRACLE PRODUCT. NOW, AMMONIA WOULD JUST KILL MY LUNGS. I HAVE NO ONE TO TAKE OUT IN THE MORNING, BUT IF I WERE YOU, I WOULD GIVE THIS PRODUCT A TRY. THE INSIDE OF MY OVEN NEVER LOOKED SO SHINY AND NOW I HATE TO HAVE TO COOK BAKE IN IT.
