The best Black Friday kitchen deals we're still shopping: A pro baker's top picks from KitchenAid, Cuisinart and more

It's an air fryer ... it's a toaster oven ... it's ... well, it's both. Made of sleek stainless steel, this compact appliance cooks up crispy favorites with hardly any oil, and you can get it at Target for less than it is at Amazon. In fact, this price is the best we've seen it on sale for. 

Enjoying a warm breakfast on a busy morning has never been so easy, thanks to this contraption that'll make a bacon, egg and cheese (or two) without you having to wait at the drive-through. Just fill each tray with your bread, eggs, cheese and any toppings you'd like, and it'll cook everything so that it's nice and melty by the time you've gotten dressed. 

It doesn't go on sale often, so add it to your cart while it's down to one of its best prices of 2024. 

We have entered prime baking season, and at 4.5 quarts, this top-seller can hold enough dough to make up to eight dozen cookies at a time (though it won't take up much room in your kitchen). This is the brand I use in my own home kitchen, and it comes with a beater, dough hook and whisk attachments for making practically any baked good under the sun. 

It'll give your arms a break by doing all of the mixing, and you can let it run while you prep other ingredients. This is as low as it's been since April, so scoop it up ahead of the holidays!

If you could use a more industrial model, this is the exact mixer I have on my kitchen counter — it's an absolute beast. Because it has a bowl-lift design rather than a tilt-head design, it's more stable and can whip things up with greater power. Plus, the bowl itself is a bit larger. 

At nearly 40% off, this is the best price I'm seeing on the web — I'm tempted to grab a second one!

Metal mixing bowls are the best because there's no risk of them shattering if your forceful whisking accidentally sends them crashing to the floor. This assortment — which I use at home all the time — comes with bowls of all different sizes that neatly stack inside one another, and the included lids mean you can use them for storing leftovers too. 

The starting price might be inflated, but at less than $4 a pop, these are still a stellar deal.

Never strain your wrists opening a can again, thanks to this nifty little device that does the job with the push of a button. The No. 1 bestseller cleanly removes the top without leaving any sharp edges behind, and it's battery-operated so you won't have to deal with cords. 

It's not often on sale, but happens to be marked down to the best price our trackers are showing since 2021. Join the 20,000-plus shoppers who have purchased one within the past month. 

One Yahoo shopping editor named this the "best Keurig coffee maker" out of all of the models she tested, calling it "a reliable Keurig that delivers everything you'd want from a single-cup coffee maker and more."

She adds, "It makes four cup sizes (8, 10 and 12 ounces, and a 2-ounce shot), the buttons are clear and intuitive and it offers an 'over ice' option that automatically adjusts brew temperature for less-watery iced coffee. Plus, it comes with a bonus for anyone who likes lattes, cappuccinos and other espresso-style drinks: an excellent standalone milk frother."

It's only dipped lower than it's current price by a few dollars, and doesn't often go on sale, so you'll want to grab it while it's nearly 30% off. 

Henckels has been crafting knives for over a century, so the brand knows a thing or two about what makes a quality set. This top-seller comes with just about every type of blade a home cook could need: a 3-inch paring knife, a 5-inch serrated utility knife, a 7-inch santoku knife, an 8-inch chef's knife and an 8-inch bread knife. Also included: six 4.5-inch steak knives, a professional honing steel, kitchen shears and a hardwood knife block. Whew! 

This collection is majorly marked down from its list price of $345, though we've never actually seen it shoot that high. Still, this is a stellar price for a comprehensive set with such high ratings — some single knives can cost as much. 

Check out our roundup of the best knives and knife sets for more — this set topped the list!

This weeknight-friendly cooker heats up in a jiffy and holds up to 2.5 pounds of fries or 14 wings at a time. (We'll be awaiting our Super Bowl party invite!) Plus, it can be used to dehydrate food, proof bread and even bake desserts. 

This deal brings it down to its Prime Day price, which is also its all-time low. 

You'll feel like you have your own personal smoothie shop with this best-in-class blender. Boasting a 2-horsepower motor, it'll effortlessly blitz up ice and frozen fruit, though you could also use it for whizzing up sauces or even grinding up meat. 

From soup to nuts (as in, homemade nut butters), this workhorse will level up your meal prep like no other — and this is the best price we're seeing.

Gordon Ramsay approves of this brand, and you know how particular the celebrity chef is. The pans' hybrid construction combines the best qualities of stainless steel, cast iron and nonstick for a one-of-a-kind product that, according to Ramsay, "is highly versatile and cooks exceptionally well." 

They're made of aluminum sandwiched between stainless steel for expert heat conduction and distribution, and their nonstick interiors make them a breeze to clean. Plus, the signature hexagonal etching helps encourage browning. With this starter set, you'll get the 12-inch, 10-inch and 8-inch Hybrid pans, plus lids for each — and for nearly 40% off.

The best meals are the ones you can make by tossing all of the ingredients into one cooking vessel, then setting and forgetting. That's probably why the Instant Pot has become such a fan favorite — and this model, with its 10 functions in one, is so versatile, it just might become your most-used appliance. 

Make rice, sear chicken, bake bread ... or heck, even whip up some cheesecake in it. You'll be able to cook enough food to feed six people, so we'll be awaiting my dinner party invitation. Oh, and this 42% discount brings the price down to as low as it's been all year. 

Allow this high-tech gizmo to take all the guesswork out of grilling, roasting and baking by letting you know the internal and external temperatures of the foods you're preparing. One Yahoo writer and her husband tried it out, saying they've "never grilled better meat — it almost feels like cheating." (Check out her full Meater Plus review for more.) Have a home cook on your holiday shopping list who could use a foolproof method for ensuring their famous ribs are perfectly cooked? Look no further.

This is the best price we've seen since summer, and when expensive steaks are on the line? You want to ensure they're edible, or else that's just money down the drain.

Every kitchen needs a good pair of oven mitts, meaning those hole-filled ones in your drawer need to go. These top-sellers are heat-resistant up to 500°F, thanks to their silicone coating — and not only that, their ribbed design offers better grip than cloth mitts. 

They're water-resistant to protect your hands from hot splatters and come in over 20 colors, though prices vary. (This blue pair is over 55% off, its lowest price ever!)

OK, this isn't a kitchen deal per se, but just think of all of the affordable kitchen gear you'll have access to thanks to your new Sam's Club membership. They've got lots of Thanksgiving shortcuts plus Black Friday deals on gifts.

This deal knocks the annual membership price down by 60%, but hurry — the offer ends December 2!

You can't go wrong with this 6.75-quart beauty, which was designed to be more lightweight (measured by quart) than other premium cast iron cookware on the market. Ina Garten is a fan of the brand, saying it's "great for soups, stews and braising." This model is a bit more shallow than standard Dutch ovens, but it has a large surface area that makes it ideal for browning meat and reducing liquids. 

We're not seeing it for any less than it is here — and it comes in 16 colors, so good luck choosing! 

Been curious about hopping aboard the meal kit train? Now's your chance to see why all of your family and friends are obsessed. This deal gets you a 50% discount (and free shipping!) on your first month of meals, and the price reflects eight servings of Chef Favorites. 

Easy-to-follow recipes, pre-portioned ingredients — making dinner from scratch has never been this effortless. 

I own this multi-use, nonstick beauty, and it just might become your most-utilized piece of cookware, thanks to its thoughtful design. It took the internet by storm a few years ago and quickly became a favorite of home cooks and celebrities alike. (Selena Gomez did a collaboration with the brand, and Oprah has called it "the kitchen magician.")

Its ceramic coating is slick and free of PFAS, while the handle smartly doubles as a spoon rest. Speaking of utensils, it comes with a wooden spatula and metal steamer basket that can be used as a colander, and it's oven-safe up to 450°F for added versatility. It's not often on sale, so grab it while it's $55 off (as low as it's ever been).

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream — yes, even in the fall! This wildly popular appliance will satiate your sweet tooth until it's warm enough for the ice cream truck to roll around. 

It churns out everything from ice cream and sorbet to milkshakes and more — just add your ingredients, freeze overnight, press a button and ta-da! Plus, you'll be able to customize your creation with your favorite mix-ins. This price beats Amazon's, so "scoop" it up while you can.

If you've been eyeing these sleek grinders but couldn't justify their high price tags, now's your chance to snag 'em for over 60% off. Not only are they ridiculously attractive, they also allow you to change the coarseness of your seasonings — and there's a nifty LED light at the bottom of each one. 

"I bought several sets and gave them to my 'foodie' friends for Christmas," wrote a thoughtful gift-giver. "Great quality — well made. The light on the bottom allows you to see how much salt/pepper is being dispensed. They are easy to use and a great conversation piece at dinner!"

Soups, stews, braises and all things cozy are this stove-to-oven pot's specialty — and it's such a looker, you'll want to keep it out on display 24/7. The ceramic nonstick coating makes cleaning as easy as a quick wipe down, and you can feel at ease knowing it's free of PFAS. 

While it's not the biggest discount on this list, Caraway cookware sales are rare — and compared to, say, Le Creuset, this is a total bargain. 

Have you ever seen a kitchen appliance as lovely as this stunner from Drew Barrymore's home goods line? You won't mind keeping this on your counter while your cold-weather comfort dishes bubble away. 

It can hold enough food for about seven people, and the light-up display is a fun touch. Plus, this sale price is about as low as it gets.

We spotted this very mandoline in an Instagram video showing Giada De Laurentiis using it to thinly slice cucumbers for a salad. It comes with both straight and serrated blades, and there's also a handy dial on the side that lets you choose from 21 (!) different thicknesses, whether you want paper-thin vegetables for making homemade chips or chunkier pieces to roast. 

Now, mandolines don't exactly have the best reputation — they're often associated with, let's just say, finger "mishaps" due to their extremely sharp blades. That's why safety features are crucial, and this model doesn't skimp. For instance, the side of the blade that isn't being used is completely concealed, and it comes with a spring-loaded food holder, which you stick onto whatever you're slicing to use as a barrier between the fruit/vegetable and your hand; this way, you're never coming in close contact with the blade itself. Snag it while it's nearly 45% off!

You can't go wrong with classic stainless steel cookware, and Made In's sought-after pieces don't often go on sale. That said, this bestselling set is a rare 20% off and includes small, medium and large pans to suit all of your stir-frying and sautéing needs. 

They come with a lifetime warranty for peace of mind, and you won't have to worry about "forever chemicals" making their way into your food. 

Bigger isn't always better, and this compact crusher is proof. It weighs less than 2 pounds and holds just enough for a single serving. But the coolest part? It's battery-powered, meaning you can whiz up refreshing beverages on the go. 

Designed to fit in most cupholders, this blitzer can accompany you on road trips, to the gym, the office ... just about anywhere. Toss in your ingredients and blend away en route to work — that'll give you a few more minutes of shut-eye in the morning. At 33% off, this price is within a dollar of its all-time low. 

Ina Garten uses similar towels in her kitchen (you can see one in this recent Instagram post). The no-frills wipes are made of cotton for superior absorbency and can be used for everything from cleaning up spills to handling hot pans. 

This is actually a buy one, get one free deal, so you're getting six towels for less than $4 each (add two sets to your cart, and the discount will be applied at checkout). 

Ready to swap your stained food storage containers for a spiffy new set? This No. 1 bestselling pack comes with three containers and lids, as well as drop-in trays that allow you to separate foods within the same bin. Pretty cool, huh?

Also cool: The fact that this trio is down to the best price we've seen all year. 

Want to really up your at-home java game? You'll feel like you have a personal cafe right in your kitchen, thanks to this machine's 16 precision grind settings, and the digital temperature control helps ensure your latte comes out just right. There's also a steam wand for foaming milk, and the whole process, from grinding to brewing espresso, takes under a minute. 

At $200 off, this No. 1 bestseller is on sale for its best price of 2024.
