I recently got my very first KitchenAid stand mixer, and I’ve been using it all the time! I’ve tried a few different attachments already (like the beloved shave ice one and this juicer attachment), but there is one stand mixer accessory I’ve really got my eye on: KitchenAid’s Tilt-Head Flex Edge Beater. It can help solve the problem of needing to constantly scrape down the sides of the bowl while I’m mixing up batters — and right now it’s just under $28 (on sale!).
What You Should Know About KitchenAid’s Tilt-Head Flex Edge Beater
You would use this accessory in place of the beater that comes with your stand mixer. What makes this one different is that one side has a silicone scraper designed to pull in the batter, dough, or whipped cream that gets stuck to the side of the bowl. It’s not a major problem in my kitchen, but it would be super helpful to not have to keep stopping during the mixing process to scrape down the bowl — and this little tool can make that happen.
This beater is meant for the 4.5- and 5-quart tilt-head stand mixers, and it can be tossed right into the dishwasher when you’re done using it. It’s pretty popular, too — shoppers have bought more than 2,000 in the past month alone. Plus, right now it’s 30% off on Amazon, which makes the usually-$40 accessory only $27.88. A great score just in time for fall baking!
