Let’s be honest — the oven is one of those appliances we rely on daily… until it starts looking like a science experiment gone wrong.
Burnt-on cheese.
Spilled sauces.
Grease splatters.
Mystery stains from meals past.
Mine was no different.
No microwave in our house means everything goes in the oven — from reheating leftovers to roasting veggies to baking bread.
And after years of love (and heavy use), my oven looked more like a charcoal cave than a cooking space.
I used to reach for commercial oven cleaners — until I read the label:
“Ventilate area.”
“Wear gloves.”
“Do not inhale.”
Hard pass.
So I went searching for a natural, safe, and powerful alternative …
And found this homemade oven cleaner — made with ingredients already in my kitchen.
No fumes.
No toxins.
Just lemon, vinegar, dish soap, and water .
And let me tell you — it works better than the store-bought stuff.
Let’s explore how to make it — and why your oven will thank you.
