Basic Baking Utensils

Here I have compiled a short, basic list of common baking utensils that most households are equipped with. This is not including pots, pans, equipment, or decorating items. You can make a great variety of different baked goods using just these items. However, they are not all completely necessary, and you could certainly get by without all of them.

• Measuring spoons: 1/4 teaspoon, 1/2 teaspoon, 1 teaspoon, 1 tablespoon.
• Dry measuring cups: 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, and 1 cup.
• Liquid measuring cups: up to 2 cups.
• Mixing spoons: wooden and plastic
• Mixing bowls: glass, plastic, and steel

• Strainer, sieves, and slotted spoons
• Sharp knives
