The best kitchen deals to scoop up before Black Friday, according to a pro baker

Been lusting after one of these babies? We know the feeling. Well, it's your lucky day, since this Walmart deal brings the price down to even less than Amazon's (its best price all year), and you can score it in more colors too.

At 4.5 quarts, this bestseller 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 at home, 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.

Thousands of Amazon shoppers love these sturdy containers, which have airtight seals to keep food fresh. The containers are made of glass — but not just any glass. We're talking about borosilicate glass, which is used on thermal tiles in space shuttles. 

Not only does it conveniently allow you to see what's packed inside, but it's oven-safe up to 1,040°F. You can also store these containers in the freezer if you have leftovers you know you won't get to right away. At just over $3 per container, this is a fabulous value.

At a rare 50% off, this is one of the most worthwhile deals on this list — it's the lowest we've seen this No. 1 bestselling set on sale for all year. 

Not only is it a blender, it also doubles as a food processor to save space in your cabinets — just swap out the bowls depending on what you're using it for. Holiday meal prep is about to get a lot less strenuous! Oh, and it comes with not one, but two to-go cups so you can bring your smoothies in the car.

Ready to ditch the flimsy, disposable aluminum trays for a sturdier, prettier option? This timeless piece will instantly elevate your table with its elegant silhouette and chic ridged detailing. Now you can take your gratin directly from oven to table — fewer dishes to clean!

Made of smooth-glazed ceramic, it retains heat to keep food warm for longer, and the slick coating makes for less scrubbing. With a 4.2-quart capacity, it's large enough to hold a whole chicken and large cuts of meat, as well as baked pastas, green bean casseroles and cakes, and its taller sides help prevent dreaded spillage onto your oven floor. 

This bestselling dish hasn't dipped lower than its current price since 2021, according to our price trackers — so it's safe to assume this is just about as low as it'll get.

So long, crusty cookware. This 14-piece set just about has it all: 8- and 11-inch frying pans, a 4.3-quart casserole with lid, 1.8- and 4.5-quart saucepans with lids, four pan protectors, a spatula and a mixing spoon. That's all for $70 — less than you'd pay for a single pan from many brands.

This discount brings the price down to within a few dollars of its all-time low, and for peace of mind, the white granite surface is PFOA-free.

Henckels has been crafting knives for over a century, so the brand knows a thing or two about what makes a quality set. This No. 1 bestseller 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.

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.

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.

Psst: Come Thanksgiving, this will allow you to heat things up when your oven's full.

Oven mitts, pot holders and kitchen towels need to be replaced every so often, and if yours are ready to be tossed, this No. 1 bestselling set is an excellent deal. Because it's KitchenAid, you know you're getting a quality product, and what sets the included oven mitt apart is the fact that it has nonstick silicone grips for more confident handling of hot pots and pans. 

At 50% off, this is close to as low as it's been all year, so you might want to stock up on a few sets. (This red is particularly festive, but it comes in more muted hues as well.)

If your knives are still in working order but could use a little honing, this No. 1 bestseller can do the job in just a few swipes. There are notches for repairing, straightening, sharpening and polishing to take your blades from dull to like-new. 

We've yet to see it dip lower than it is now, so join the 10,000-plus shoppers who purchased one in the past month alone. 

This versatile skillet ain't no flash in the pan — it's been a staple in one Yahoo Life editor's kitchen for years. Among its many perks are its lightweight, 2-pound design, as well as the removable silicone grip on its handle, which will protect your hands while you cook. 

It's also dishwasher-safe, but our editor says, "Cleanup is a breeze and only requires a few swipes with a soapy sponge, even around the rivets that secure the handle." It's currently down to the best price we've seen all year.

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 cozy stews and braises 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.

If your ratty old dish towels have seen better days, this 100% cotton set is an excellent swap. The waffle weave pattern not only looks nice, but it also offers a bit of texture for more effective scrubbing. 

Our price trackers tell us this is within a dollar of these towels' all-time low, so wipe — er, swipe — 'em while they're on sale. 

Le Creuset who? I use Lodge Dutch ovens at home, and this roomy model is just right if you're cooking for a crowd. The slick enameled interior cleans like a dream, while the sturdy cast iron offers excellent heat distribution and retention. Plus, it's so pretty you won't mind leaving it on the stove for everyone to admire.

At over 40% off, this is about the best price we've seen it marked down to since 2022 (it was just a tad lower on Prime Day). Read our full Lodge Dutch oven review for more details.

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.
