Anchor Hocking 2-Quart Batter Bowl with Slate Blue Plastic Cover
This batter bowl comes with a lid that will make storing quick and easy. The bowl is made from thick-walled oven and microwave safe glass and includes a cover for use in the refrigerator or microwave oven. The cover also doubles as a bowl rest, catching any dribbles of batter before they hit the countertop. The sloping sides help you get a hand mixer’s beaters into every drop of your batter and the handle provides rock-steady control when you pour. The molded-in quantity markings allow it to do double duty as a 2-quart measuring cup in half-cup increments. The clincher, of course, is that the bowl and cover go right into the dishwasher after the last waffle is baked.
