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.

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.
