Someone sends you a recipe on TikTok DM. Another one arrives in your Instagram DMs. A third gets dropped into a Telegram chat. Someone else finds something on Lemon8. They all look great. And when you're standing in the kitchen on a Tuesday night, you can't find a single one of them.
Pantree's recipe import is built to end that loop. Share any URL, video link, or photo into Pantree and the app parses the ingredients, steps, cook time and metadata into a clean, consistent format. One library. Every recipe you actually want to cook — searchable, filterable, and linked to the ingredients you already have in your pantry.
How it works
- From a URL. Paste or share any recipe URL — food blog, magazine site, newspaper — and Pantree extracts the structured recipe in a couple of seconds.
- From TikTok, Instagram and YouTube. Use the share sheet to send a video to Pantree. Pantree reads the caption, comments and (where available) the video transcript to reconstruct a full recipe.
- From a photo. Snap a picture of a cookbook page, a handwritten recipe card, or a napkin scrawl. OCR extracts the text and Pantree parses it into ingredients and steps.
- By hand. Add a recipe manually with our structured editor. Useful for family recipes you've made from memory for twenty years.
