Convert your Recipe Keeper backup
Recipe Keeper bundles your collection into a tidy .zip. We turn it into PDF, JSON, CSV, Markdown, or .cook so every recipe works in whatever app you use next.
100% free. Open-source parsing. No account required.
What we support
Drop in the .zip from Recipe Keeper's Export action — or unzip it and upload just the HTML.
The full export — recipes.html plus an images/ folder. Every recipe, every photo, every field.
The bare HTML file works too — useful if you've already extracted the zip or only want the recipe data without photos.
How to export from Recipe Keeper
Open Recipe Keeper
Launch the app on whichever device holds your collection.
Open settings
Tap the gear or menu icon, then choose Backup, Import & Export.
Export
Pick the Export option. Recipe Keeper builds a single .zip containing recipes.html and the images/ folder. Save it somewhere you can find again.
Upload it here
Drag the .zip into the upload area above. We unpack it, parse every recipe, and convert into the formats you choose.
Why move recipes out of Recipe Keeper?
Recipe Keeper is a pleasant app to use, but the .zip you get out of it isn't something other apps natively read. Most cooks who try to switch end up either re-typing recipes by hand or giving up.
That's the gap this page closes. Recipe Keeper does a thoughtful thing — it exports as Schema.org-tagged HTML — and that means your recipes are already structured. We translate that into the open formats every other app understands.
Convert to JSON for re-import into another app, PDF for printing, Markdown for a personal cookbook, or .cook for any CookLang-compatible tool. Your collection, your choice of format.
