Recipe Converter

Scales a recipe up or down and rewrites every amount as a fraction you can actually measure. Enter the servings the recipe makes, the servings you want and the ingredient lines as written, and each line comes back scaled, with cups and spoons broken down into whole tablespoons and teaspoons where the fraction is an awkward one. A second mode converts a recipe between pan sizes by comparing the floor area of the two pans. There is no ingredient data behind it, so it never turns cups into grams, and oven temperature and baking time do not scale the way the ingredients do.
