Parchment paper is typically rated for 425–450 degrees F, some is rated up to 500 degrees F. If you heat it over temperature it becomes brittle but it doesn’t burn. If you put it over a fire or use it in a broiler it might burn, depending on the conditions.

Do you grease parchment paper when baking?

Baking parchment should not need greasing once it is in the pan, though some people like to grease it as well. Greaseproof paper should be greased once it is in the base of the pan. Melted butter is the best greasing agent. Brush the melted butter evenly on the base and edges of the pan using a pastry brush.
