I too have never heard of greasing cupcake liners. I find freshly baked cakes/muffins stick to the cupcake liners. Once they have sat for a little while, no problem. I use the inexpensive ones from the Dollar Store, they have some pretty ones now. Would not bake without them. They make cleanup so much easier. Yes, I do lightly grease the top of the muffin pans just in case the batter spills over -- a tip a chef friend gave me.
