Adapt a recipe for different servings, diets, or missing ingredients
Your recipe rewritten for new servings, diets, or swaps, with notes on how taste, texture, and timing may change.
The prompt
Adapt this recipe for me.
Original recipe: [PASTE THE FULL RECIPE, including amounts and pan size]
Servings I need: [e.g. "halve it", "feed 12 instead of 4"]
Changes needed: [e.g. "make it dairy-free", "gluten-free", "lower sugar", "no eggs", "I don't have buttermilk"]
Equipment differences: [e.g. "only have a 9x13 pan", "air fryer instead of oven", "high altitude"]
Rules:
- Scale every amount and convert awkward quantities into practical measures (e.g. "1/3 egg" becomes "1 small egg" or "2 tbsp beaten egg").
- For baking, warn me when scaling or swapping could change texture or rise, and adjust pan size, bake time, and temperature with doneness checks rather than time alone.
- For each substitution, give the swap, the ratio, and what will taste or feel different.
- If a swap is risky for this recipe (e.g. removing eggs from a soufflé), say so and suggest a better recipe type instead.
- If the change is for an allergy, remind me to check packaged-ingredient labels for hidden sources and cross-contact.
Return:
1. The adapted recipe: ingredients table (original amount | new amount | notes) and rewritten steps.
2. A short "what to expect" note.
3. One backup option if I can't find a substitute.
