Premiering on December 2, Peacock's holiday season-inspired competition series Baking It will bring together top home cooks for a celebration of culinary holiday traditions.

Eight teams of home bakers will create mouth-watering festive treats to win a grand cash prize of $50,000 and the title of Best in Dough.

According to Maya, the unscripted series will be judged by four opinionated, real-life grandmothers who “judge you because they love you and want you to do better."
