10 Kitchen Gadgets That’ll Make Cooking Easier For You In 2025

1. A pancake batter dispenser and mixer because 2025 is the year of making your kitchen life easier, and what could be better than mixing pancake batter inside the dispenser? Basically, it’s a magic pancake wand, and you’ll be the most popular breakfast wizard because of it.

2. A Cospro 3-in-1 wireless charging stainless-steel grinder set I will PERSONALLY never go without again because it is one less barrier to me *thinking* about cooking and me *actually* cooking. The one-handed grinding is a real game changer because I can season with freshly ground salt and pepper simultaneously and move on to the next step. Plus, it holds a charge FOREVER, so even if you don’t want to keep the base plugged in all the time, it’s good to go. This gadget is SO sleek, y’all, and it works as good as it looks!

3. An Oxo peeler made specifically with a swiveling double blade to make peeling tough-skinned fruits and veggies so easy you won’t have to give up on the recipe — or worse — hurt yourself while trying to do it with a knife.

4. An Our Place 6-in-1 Wonder Oven my fam is personally in love with because it does everything (toast, roast, air fry, and bake) while taking up the world’s smallest footprint on our counter. We’ve had other combo ovens in the past, but we use this one so much more because it makes it SO EASY to get what you need cooked done fast, in part because the dials are analog, not digital. (No school like the old school when it comes to speed!)

5. A self-stirring multi-cooker for those of us whose grown-up version of a fairy godmother would be a private chef. This dream machine uses an automatic paddle to shred meats and stir soups and stews so you can spend less time in the kitchen and more time decorating your house for the holiday season.

6. A Kitchen Mama automatic can opener that’ll speed up those casseroles that involve a bunch of canned veggies and cans of broth without requiring another counter-based gadget. This one works with a quick click of the button, so you can totally do other prep things while this does the opening work for you!

7. And a can colander that ~can~ really cut down on prep time by letting you drain veggies straight from the tin instead of having to find the full-sized strainer.

8. A spill stopper that’ll cut back on your “gotta clean up the cooking mess” time, which, of course, translates to more Netflix-scrolling time. You’re welcome.

9. A chic, retro four-slice toaster if your old toaster smells like burned crumbs every time you use it and makes you avoid your morning toast. No more with this truly gorgeous British-brand gadget that wants to give you PERFECT toast en masse. American/British relations haven’t been this good since Red, White, and Royal Blue, y’all.

10. And a set of toaster oven bags if you want to Pop-Tart-ify your grilled cheese regimen. These bags are reusable, too, so they can sustain your toasted sandwich habit all season long. (Peak grilled cheese and tomato soup season is upon us, y’all.)
