The pairs are Justine and Matt; Miranda and Aaron; Barrie and Alisha; Trevor and Thea; and Mai and Jordan. The cooks will taste the cake blind-folded to identify the ingredients used in the cake and then bake it. The judges decide that Justine and Matt produce the best replication.

Team Challenge 3: The Top 9 are divided into three teams and challenged to create gourmet burgers and fries for a group of hungry motorcycle enthusiasts. Aaron chooses Trevor and Thea for his Red team. Alisha chooses Matt and Barrie for her Blue team, while Mai chooses Justine and Miranda for her Green team. The winning team with the most sales will be safe from the pressure test. Mai's Green team was declared as the winner in a close result by beating Alisha's Blue team by 8 orders.

Mystery Box 2: The theme of this Mystery box features Italian and Mediterranean ingredients. Chef Jamie Oliver makes a special appearance in the MasterChef kitchen. He also announces that the winner of this Mystery Box will also have his/her appetizer dish featured in the menu of Jamie's Italian Canada. The top three dishes are Barrie's, Trevor's and Thea's. Thea is declared as the winner of the Mystery Box.

Skills Test, Part 1: The Top 6 home cooks are shocked to learn that a special redemption challenge has taken place outside the MasterChef kitchen as Alice returns to the competition after competing against Justine and Matt (See MasterChef Canada: Redemption). Now, the 7 home cooks will face a series of pressure tests featuring egg as the main ingredient that get progressively more challenging. The cooks must battle for survival to progress to the next stage of competition. The first pressure test features Scotch egg. Barrie produces the best dish, and is sent to safety. Aaron and Thea have also done enough to be made safe.

Skills Test, Part 2: Alice, Miranda, Mai and Trevor now face the next pressure test which features Eggs Benedict. Mai and Trevor both produce dishes that are enough to deem them safe, leaving Alice and Miranda to face the final pressure test.

Team Challenge 4: The Top 6 face the annual restaurant takeover in Michael's Bonacini's 's iconic Auberge du Pommier, an Oliver & Bonacini restaurant. Barrie and Aaron are the captains of the Red and Blue team respectively. Barrie chooses Trevor and Mai, while Aaron chooses Thea and Miranda. The teams need to prepare two appetizers (an artichoke salad and a duck consommé en croute) and two entrees (a beef tenderloin dish and a ham-wrapped monkfish dish). The judges received feedback from their valued guests during service, and in the end decided that Barrie's Red team is the winning team.

Mystery Box 3: In this challenge, the Top 5 cooks are shown the judges' favorite techniques in cooking salmon: glazed, encrusted and poached. The cooks will then use one of these techniques to create a delicious salmon dish. The winner will receive a huge advantage in the elimination challenge. In a random draw, Miranda and Trevor select "glazed", Barrie picks "encrusted", whilst Mai and Thea select "poached". In the end, the best three salmon dishes are Miranda's, Trevor's and Barrie's. Miranda is declared as the winner of the Mystery Box.

Team Challenge 5: The Top 4 home cooks arrive at a picturesque Ontario orchard to compete in their final Team Challenge. The home cooks are then surprised by their loved ones, and tasked to create an elegant family dinner that showcases the autumn harvest. Having created the best dish in the last elimination challenge, Barrie is given the option of choosing his partner. He chooses Trevor, forming the Red team, which leaves Mai and Thea to form the Blue team. In the end, Barrie and Trevor are deemed as the winner of the challenge, securing their spots in the Top 3.

Individual Challenge: Trevor, Barrie and Thea were tasked to create a mélange of pastries in two hours to be served to the judges and 45 guests (11 pastry chefs and children). Some of their dishes had minor flaws but the judges, the chefs and the children voted Barrie as the winner of this challenge.
