  1. To line a loaf tin, cut a rectangle 2.5 times the open width and 1.5 times the length.
  2. Push the paper into the loaf tin to roughly mark where the bottom corners of the tin are. Remove and cut diagonally from the very corner of the paper to the corner crease mark. Repeat for each of the corners.

  3. Set the paper into the tin and cut away any excess at the corner folds and around the top. As with round tins, greasing the loaf tin lightly will help the paper stay straight in the tin!
