How Do I Cut a Recipe In Half?

You can scale recipes and courses up and down as much as you need. To scale recipes, see our article on  Scaling Recipes

Dividing recipes is the same as multiplying them. Just enter the scale factor in the form of a decimal for the fractional amount you wish. 

Some common scale factors:

  • 1/4 times recipe: Enter ".25"
  • 1/2 times recipe: Enter ".5"
  • 1 times recipe: Enter "1" or close the scale tool
  • 2 times recipe: Enter "2"
  • 3 times recipe: Enter "3"
