KitchenAid Attachments: From-Scratch Made Easy

Go beyond baking with KitchenAid attachments that make preparing every course of your meal a breeze, from fresh-baked bread and homemade pasta with meatballs to creamy soft-serve ice cream for dessert. For use with your Artisan, mini or bowl-lift KitchenAid stand mixer, KitchenAid accessories turn these already versatile appliances into a variety of other tools, reducing the need for separate machines. To use, simply remove the mixing hub cover at the top front of the mixer, plug in your desired KitchenAid mixer attachment and set the speed according to the manual for your specific accessory. Another benefit to KitchenAid stand mixer attachments? Because they connect to the mixer for power, they are smaller and easier to store than their free-standing counterparts, making them an ideal choice for spaces with limited storage. Discover countless things to do with a KitchenAid mixer using these attachments.
