Can I Use Wax Paper Instead Of Parchment Paper?
Wax paper and parchment paper are both used for baking, but they are not interchangeable. Wax paper has a wax coating that can melt or even catch fire in the oven, while parchment paper is heat-resistant and non-stick. Therefore, it is not recommended to substitute wax paper for parchment paper in any recipe calling for parchment paper.
