Recipe Multiplier — Formel

## How to Multiply a Recipe

### Formula

**Scale Factor = Desired Servings / Original Servings**

**New Amount = Original Amount x Scale Factor**

Multiply every ingredient by the same scale factor. Be cautious with leavening agents (baking powder, yeast) when scaling above 3x, as they may not scale linearly.

Lösungsbeispiel

Scale a recipe from 4 servings to 12 servings. An ingredient is 2 cups.

  1. Scale factor: 12 / 4 = 3.
  2. New ingredient amount: 2 x 3 = 6 cups.
  3. Multiply all other ingredients by 3 as well.
