How do you grease a pan without oil or butter?

Chef's answer
Approximately the same amount of applesauce, mashed banana, or pureed prune can do the same work with great result. For savory recipes, you can use mashed tofu to replace the oil. You don't need to use oil to prepare baking pans either. Rather, line the pan with parchment paper or silicone bakeware.
