Homemade Cooking Spray

by Natures Nurture
Ingredients
1 part olive oil (or your choice of oil)
5 parts water
1 misting spray bottle
Instructions
Mix in your spray bottle 1 part olive oil to 5 parts water. In my 12 ounce bottle, I poured in 2 ounces of canola oil and added 10 ounces of water. Shake well and you’re done. That’s it. Store in a cool, dark place.

Make sure the bottle you use is a MISTING spray bottle. (A plant mister would be perfect!) But the bottle I got at Walmart for about $1.50 works fine too.
I just used plain canola oil because I was out of olive oil. I think I will try that next time. Both worked well. I just prefer the taste, texture, and performance of olive oil.
Finally, just for fun, I printed out a ”Cooking Spray” label and slapped it on the bottle just so there would be no mistakes. And since most likely the spray bottle will be handled by oily, messy hands in the kitchen, I covered the whole label with clear, packaging tape.
