How it works

1

Copy the Facebook link

Find a recipe post, Reel, or group share on Facebook. Tap the share button and copy the link.

2

Paste into Pluck

Open Pluck and paste the URL. Our AI reads the post text, watches any video, and extracts the complete recipe.

3

Review and save

Check the extracted recipe — ingredients, instructions, cook times — make any edits, and save to your recipe box.

The manual way to save Facebook recipes

1

Save the post using Facebook's built-in save feature

Facebook's Saved folder is a graveyard — no search, no tags, and it mixes recipes with everything else

2

Screenshot group posts and copy recipe text from comments

Recipes in groups are scattered across posts, comments, and replies with no structure

3

Re-watch Facebook Reels to transcribe the recipe

Facebook's video player makes scrubbing painful — and you'll miss quantities spoken quickly

With Pluck, paste the Facebook URL and get a structured recipe instantly — whether it's a text post, video, Reel, or group share.

Why use Pluck for Facebook?

Save recipes from Facebook groups

Facebook cooking groups are goldmines of recipes, but they're impossible to search later. Pluck saves them to your personal recipe box so you never lose one.

Works with Facebook Reels and videos

Facebook recipe videos and Reels are hard to cook from. Pluck watches the video and gives you a written recipe with structured ingredients and steps.

Handles every post format

Text posts, photo albums, shared links, live videos, Reels — Pluck's AI adapts to however the recipe was shared and extracts what you need.

Frequently asked questions

Does it work with Facebook group posts?

Yes, as long as the post is public or the link is accessible. Private group posts that aren't shareable via URL can't be accessed by Pluck.

What about Facebook Reels?

Pluck handles Facebook Reels the same way as other video posts — it analyzes the video, audio, and any caption text to extract the full recipe.

Can it extract recipes from Facebook videos?

Yes. Pluck watches the video, listens to spoken instructions, reads on-screen text, and combines it all with the post caption to create a complete recipe.

Does it work with shared recipe links on Facebook?

If someone shared a link to a food blog or website on Facebook, Pluck follows the link and extracts the recipe from the original source for the best accuracy.

Other ways to save Facebook recipes

Facebook Save feature

Save posts to Facebook's built-in Saved section for later viewing.

No recipe extraction, poor organization, and mixes recipes with all other saved content.

Copy-paste to notes

Manually copy recipe text from the post into a notes app.

Doesn't work with video posts, and you lose formatting and context.

Screenshot collection

Screenshot the post and store it in a photo album.

Unsearchable, unstructured, and gets buried in your camera roll.
