How it works

Save it, add your own, look for Ready

  1. Save any AI recipe

    Tap Save to Book on any recipe the AI writes for your pantry.

  2. Add your own

    Type in family favourites and recipes you already cook, by hand.

  3. Look for Ready

    A Ready badge shows on every recipe your pantry covers.

A recipe book is usually a list of things you'd like to cook one day. PantryAI's recipe book also knows what's in your kitchen. When your pantry covers every ingredient in a saved recipe, it gets a Ready badge.

So on a Tuesday night you don't scroll through every recipe wondering which ones you can make. You look for Ready, cook from food you already bought, and skip the extra shop. Keep your pantry up to date with the pantry app and the badges keep up with it. A recipe you saved last month shows Ready as soon as your pantry has everything it needs.

Example

Cheese and onion omelette

Example. The badge shows when your pantry covers every ingredient. Tap an ingredient to add it to the pantry or take it out.

Add and edit your own recipes

Your book isn't only for AI recipes. Tap Add Recipe and type in the dishes you already cook: the family stew, the curry from a friend, the cake on the back of a card. They sit next to your saved AI recipes in one book.

You can edit any recipe, saved or your own. Swap an ingredient, change an amount or rewrite a step so it reads the way you cook it.

Search, favourite and share

Search your book to find a recipe fast. Mark the ones you come back to as favourites. Each recipe shows how many times you've cooked it, so the reliable ones are easy to spot.

Want to send one to a friend? Share it through your phone's share sheet. When you're ready to cook, the AI chef takes you through it one step at a time.

Your recipes, backed up

You don't need an account to save recipes. If you want them safe when you change phone, sign in with an optional account. It backs up and syncs your pantry, recipes, staples and cook log, at most once a day.

Signing in is a choice, not a requirement. Skip it and the app works the same on your phone. New recipes come from the AI recipe generator, written for the food you have, and every one you like can go straight into your book.
