Try greasing the pans with Crisco, oil, oil spray or butter, as you
prefer. Or use parchment and bake free form on a stone or sheet pan.

When I bake loaves in bread pans, I use spray, and I also remove the
bread from the pan about half way through cooking, or as soon as the
crust is well-formed enough to support the loaf.
