These Christmas gifts for a chef that enjoys spending time in the kitchen and gets excited when they see a new kitchen appliance at William’s Sonoma.
This post is all about Christmas gifts for a chef and all your home chef friends.
Christmas Gifts for a Chef
1. Le Creuset Casserole Dish
We have several Le Creuset dishes that we love! This casserole stone dish is perfect for the holidays and the warm winter months! It’s great to use to make casseroles, lasagna, and even dessert bars and brownies!
Your home chef friends will love this gift because this dish comes in a variety of colors, so you can choose one that matches the aesthetic in their kitchen, or one that is their favorite color. It’s such a high quality dish and will last them years to come.
2. A Gorgeous Apron
If your friend doesn’t have an apron to cook in, this would be a great gift to give her. We love the dainty, beautiful pattern on this apron.
We saw it in the store the other day and wanted to grab one for ourselves, because it was so adorable. Anthropologie has such unique and fun apron options, so any apron would be a great option as a gift for a chef.
3. Jot & Mark Recipe Tin Kit
Is it just us, or do you love an old fashioned recipe card? Growing up, we used recipe cards all the time when we were cooking in the kitchen. We love to physically touch our recipes and have them in front of us while we are cooking.
This recipe box includes recipe cards and index dividers to help organize your recipes! Your home chef friends will love this gift that will keep all their recipes sorted and easily accessible.
4. Vitamix Professional Series 750 Heritage Blender
This is a much pricer item, but if you are willing to splurge and spend more on a special friend or family member, this is the ultimate hirstmas gift for a chef.
This specific Vitamix has a variety of preset programs for smoothies, soups, frozen desserts, purees and washing. Your home chef friends or family members who receive this gift will be so grateful to receive this gift.
5. Breville Smart Oven Pro with Light with Convection
This is an appliance we have been dreaming to buy for a while. This toaster oven truly can do it ALL!
It has 10 built in presets for toast, bagel, bake, roast, broil, pizza, cookies, reheat, warm, slow cook. This item would be perfect for someone who loves to make quick, delicious meals during the week.
6. Hello Fresh Subscription
If you know someone who enjoys the process of cooking, but is crunched for time during the week days, Hello Fresh is so convenient. They deliver a refrigerated box with all the necessary ingredients you would need to create meals for the week. You have the ability to choose from multiple meal plans based on your friend’s dietary and lifestyle needs.
This would also be a great gift for a teenager who is interested in learning how to cook in the kitchen, because it gives you detailed instructions and perfect measurements of each ingredient.
7. Gift a Thrive Market Subscription
Thrive Market is an online market that focuses on selling healthy grocery items for reasonable prices. They cut out the middle man and focus on sourcing amazing products. Thrive Market subscription is such a great gift for a chef, because they can personally choose a list of items they would want to add to their weekly grocery list.
8. Half Baked Harvest’s Super Simple Cookbook
We personally own this cookbook and cook recipes from it all the time. When it comes to creating delicious, cozy and simple meals, this cookbook will exceed your expectations!
If you have a friend who is obsessed with Half Baked Harvest’s blog and recipes, this cookbook is a perfect gift for a chef.
9. Eat Smart Cookbook
We absolutely love this cook book as well! We were first introduced to Niomi on Youtube, and have been following her for a while as she lives in London and enjoys her vegan-lifestyle. All the recipes in this cookbook are vegan and are incredibly delicious!
If your friend or family lives a vegan lifestyle, this cookbook is a perfect gift for them.
10. Milk Bar Cookie Tin
Milk Bar is one of our favorite treats to splurge on if we’ve had a busy and exhausting week. These cookies are incredibly delicious, and they make it super easy for you to order as a gift. They come in a cute, tin box with an assortment of all their most popular cookie flavors.
Your coworker will be so in love with these delicious treats!
11. Gingerbread Spice Quick Bread Mix
We don’t know about you, but this little package would delight the chef inside of us. This is the perfect stocking stuffer or small gift to give your house chef.
Baking mixes are such a great gift for a chef, because it gives them an excuse to bake in the kitchen.
