Recipe Scaler

Scale a recipe up or down. Paste the ingredient list, enter original and new servings, and every quantity is resized automatically.

Enter your values and press Calculate.

How to use the Recipe Scaler

Quantities at the start of each line are detected automatically — whole numbers, decimals, fractions (¾ written as 3/4) and mixed numbers (1 1/2). When scaling baking recipes by large factors, adjust pan size and baking time too.

Formula

Scale factor = New servings ÷ Original servings. Every leading quantity is multiplied by this factor and rounded to the nearest ⅛ for small amounts.
