Instagram Recipe Extractor: Save Recipes in Seconds

Ze'ev - Jan 8th, 2025

Turn Any Instagram Post or Reel into a Recipe

Found a recipe on Instagram and want it in your shopping list without copying ingredients by hand? Paste the link into Pantry Pilot and the recipe is saved in seconds.

How It Works

  1. Copy the link - on any Instagram post or reel, tap the share button and choose Copy Link.
  2. Paste it into Pantry Pilot - in the app or on the web, paste the link into the recipe import box.
  3. Done - Pantry Pilot extracts the recipe and saves it to your collection.

On your phone you can also hit Share on the Instagram post and pick Pantry Pilot from the share sheet. Same result, one fewer step.

Posts and Reels Both Work

Photo posts, carousels and reels all work the same way. Copy the link, paste it into Pantry Pilot, and the recipe is saved - no need to screenshot the post or transcribe the caption.

What You Get

  • Ingredients, ready for your shopping list - the ingredient list is extracted and added to your list with one tap
  • Recipe title and method - saved alongside your other recipes, ready when you cook
  • Source link preserved - a link back to the original Instagram post, so you can always find it again

Why Pantry Pilot

  • Sorted by aisle - every ingredient lands on a shopping list grouped by supermarket aisle, so the weekly shop is one smooth walk
  • Woolworths checkout - push the list into a Woolworths online cart for delivery or click and collect
  • Free today - Pantry Pilot is free to use now, and the Instagram import is part of it
