hi im down at the batch for school hols and am making a date and walnut loaf however ive just realized after getting home from the shops theres NO spray or baking paper.... the loaf tin is an old one so defiantly not non stick! what can i use for the muffins i just oiled the tray but a loaf is heavier! will tin foil work or just burn the loaf without cooking the middle?

Do you have butter and plain flour? If you have, grease the tin with butter, then add 1-2 tbsp flour. Shake it around, tipping tin on it's side to cover all of the inside of the tin with the flour, then turn tin upside down over sink and tap gently to get rid of excess flour. Fill with mixture as per normal.

Have not done it with marge, but give it a go and see how it works.

As posters #2 & 3 have said. Don't use foil. You'll be picking it off the bottom of the loaf in bits - along with some of the loaf.Marge should work fine.

marge works as thats what I use here for baking. But use butter in the cooking:)

Well, there you go. Butter/ marge and the flour trick works well.saves paper.
