Bakeware
Three-Quarter Size Baking Sheet
A super large baking sheet is a game changer!! It fits everything on one baking sheet in a single layer!
8-Inch Square Baking Pan
I love metal for baking because metal cooks wave more even than glass baking pans. Great for cornbread and small batch casseroles.
9×13-Inch Baking Pan
Same as the 8-inch baking pan – I love metal for baking brownies, cookie bars, etc. It cooks way more even than glass.
Casserole Dishes with Handles
I love these ceramic dishes for savory dinner casseroles like pasta bakes, lasagna, meatballs, and thanksgiving side dishes.
9-Inch Pie Dish
Yes, I use this for pie. But also so many other things. It’s great for baked appetizers, small batch casseroles, cakes, layer dips, and more.
Muffin Pan
Same with the pie dish – you can use this for way more than muffins. I love it for egg muffins, sweet potato stacks, and mini meatloaves.
Cooling Rack
Yes I use this for cookies. But I also use it for baked chicken nuggets and roasting chicken. This one fits on a half baking sheet.

Countertop Appliances
All the essentials you can keep on your counter top… or store away if keeping things on the counter isn’t your thing!!! 🙂
Pots and Pans
PSA: You don’t need all the pots/pans that come in a pots and pan set. I much prefer selecting the specific pots you will get the most use out of. That way you can get a few nice pots and save cabinet space.
