    How it works

    Cooking for a crowd or just two? Paste the ingredient list from any recipe, one ingredient per line, and set the servings. The scaler understands whole numbers, decimals, fractions such as 1 1/2 and ranges such as 2-3, and rounds results to fractions you can actually measure.

    How to use the recipe scaler

    1. Paste ingredients, one per line.
    2. Set the servings the recipe makes and the servings you want.
    3. Copy the scaled list. Baking times rarely scale exactly, so check doneness early.

    Frequently asked questions

    Can you double every recipe?

    Most cooking recipes double well. Baking is less forgiving: leaveners, salt and spices sometimes need a little less than double, and pan size changes baking time.

    How do I halve an egg?

    Beat the egg and use about half, roughly 25 g or 1 1/2 tablespoons.

    Results are planning guides based on typical values. Always use a thermometer and follow tested recipes; for animal health questions, your veterinarian has the final word.
