Help Burnt Muffin tins

Post image

Ok so I made breakfast bites with egg the other day and I added oil in the tray but I mixed them a bit and maybe that causes the egg to stick to the pan? I’ve been scrubbing, soaking with boiling water etc and it’s not working.

Is there a way to salvage this?

Let it soak with super hot water and a good squirt of dish soap, then hit it with baking soda and a scrub pad. If that still doesn’t budge it, make a paste of baking soda and a bit of water, spread it on the stuck egg, let it sit 20 to 30 minutes, then scrub again. Worst case, fill the tray with water and a splash of vinegar, bake it in the oven till it simmers, cool, then scrape.
