A mixer bowl is a deep, wide dish used for mixing ingredients together with an electric or manual hand-held mixer. It typically has a flat bottom and sides that curve upwards to meet at the top edge, allowing for efficient blending of ingredients while minimizing spillage. Mixer bowls are available in various sizes and materials such as plastic, glass, metal, or ceramic, with some featuring non-slip grips on the bottom or handles for easier handling. They can be used to mix dough, whip up batter, blend ingredients for a cake or cookie recipe, or even knead bread dough.
