Print a recipe from a website
Paste a link from a food blog or recipe site. RecipePrinter pulls out the recipe and sets it as a clean printable card, full page, or PDF.
How it works
- 1
Copy the recipe link
On the food blog, copy the page's link from your browser, or tap Share and choose Copy link.
- 2
Paste it in
Paste the link above. RecipePrinter reads the page and rebuilds the recipe as a clean, printable layout.
- 3
Choose how it prints
Choose a full page, or a 4×6 card with Pro, keep or drop the photo, and make any edits you want before you print.
- 4
Print or save as PDF
Send it to your printer, or choose Save as PDF in the print dialog to keep a copy on your phone or computer.
It keeps the recipe and drops everything else
Print this caprese pasta salad straight from the food blog and it takes 26 sheets of paper. RecipePrinter reads the same page and keeps only what you cook from: the ingredients with amounts, the numbered steps, the prep and cook times, and the servings.
The blogger's story, the autoplay video, the comments, and the ads stay behind.
The original link prints on the card too, so the page is easy to find again.
Print it the way your kitchen works
Pick the format that fits how you cook. A 4×6 card, with RecipePrinter Pro, drops straight into a recipe box or an index-card binder. A full page suits long bakes and doubled batches, with room in the margin for your own notes. Keep the finished-dish photo or leave it off to save ink, and the type stays large enough to read from across the counter.
For the pages that fight back
Some recipes hide behind a login, sit on a site that blocks importers, or live only in a video's description. When a link won't import cleanly, paste the recipe text or upload a screenshot, and RecipePrinter structures it into the same clean printout.
When the stack becomes a book
Once enough recipes have earned a place, add them to a cookbook. Sort them into chapters and choose a cover, and RecipePrinter builds the table of contents and page numbers as you go. Preview up to 10 recipes free; one purchase for that cookbook, paid once, lets you download or print it and add more recipes. Family recipe book ideas walks through what goes in one and how people put them together.
Questions about printing from a website
- How does it know which part of the page is the recipe?
- Most recipe sites keep a tidy copy of the recipe for search engines to read. RecipePrinter takes that copy, so the amounts and the steps arrive the way the site wrote them rather than being picked out of the words on the page.
- Can I save the recipe as a PDF instead of printing?
- Yes. RecipePrinter builds a print-ready page, so in the print dialog you can choose Save as PDF and keep a clean copy on your phone or computer to print whenever you want.
- Can I do this from my phone?
- Yes. Paste the link in a phone browser and set the recipe up there, then use the phone's own print dialog to reach a wireless printer, or choose Save as PDF and print it from a computer later.
- Can I print several recipes in one go?
- Yes, with RecipePrinter Pro. Add as many recipes as you want and print them all in one job, instead of printing each recipe separately. That's handy when you're printing a week of dinners. A single recipe prints free, no account needed.Print a week of dinners
- What happens if the original page disappears?
- Your printed copy stays as it is. Recipe pages sometimes move behind a paywall, get rewritten, or go offline, but the card in your kitchen doesn't change. Save it as a PDF too if you'd like a digital copy.
