Let’s be honest: the toaster oven is the workhorse of the kitchen, churning out everything from crispy toast to mini pizzas. But like any hard worker, it tends to get, well, a little… grimy. If you've ever peeked inside and recoiled at the sight of burnt bits and grease, you're not alone. But don’t resign your beloved toaster oven to a life of filth! We've got the inside scoop on how to transform that greasy, grimy box into a sparkling clean machine.
It’s time to ditch the oven mitts and grab the cleaning supplies, because we're about to embark on a satisfyingly thorough deep clean.
