Scale recipe ingredients up or down.
Enter the original servings, desired servings, and your ingredient amounts.
Scaled Recipe
Recipe scaling uses a simple ratio: New Amount = Original Amount × (Desired Servings / Original Servings)
This is called the scaling factor. If a recipe serves 4 and you want to serve 6, the scaling factor is 6/4 = 1.5. Multiply every ingredient by 1.5.
For example, if the original recipe calls for 2 cups of flour:
- New amount = 2 × 1.5 = 3 cups of flour
Works for scaling up (dinner party) or down (cooking for one).
