    Fantastic app. Would love to have a calendar integration so my family can see what meals are planned for the week in their calendar apps
  • Defected from Paprika

    I’m a day1 Paprika user, but the app failed to integrate a key feature: using a phone camera & AI to perfectly scan and import printed page recipes….and, the app interface is better. And don’t worry, the clever developers make it an easy one step process to import your Paprika library !
  • Magically pulls recipes from web sites

    First, let me say that Croutons is great. It’s like magic how you give it a URL and it will scrape a web page and create a recipe from it. I would rate it five stars if it had a way to annotate a recipe with additional notes. You can edit the recipe itself, but it would be nice to be able to include meta information that is specific to my kitchen or family (e.g., “use the top rack and increase the temp to 375 for better browning” or “too spicy for Jane so decrease cayenne to 1/2 tsp”).

    I signed up for the monthly payment and the app works as if it is the free version which limits the amount of recipes I can have. It no longer allows me to download recipes from the web.
  • I just love this app

    One of the best apps I’ve used. It’s so simple, makes grocery shopping and planning meals a breeze. And it has wonderful free features, and even better paid features. This is an app well worth supporting. I can tell a lot of passion and care went into building this app, as both a software developer and cook myself.
  • Best app, needs a few additions but still the best by far

    Please add web accessibility outside of a Mac app. I work on windows at work and I’d love to browse my recipes in my downtime to decide dinner. Please allow other recipes to be linked at the bottom of the recipes. This is used for recommending or remembering sides that go with that dish by linking them to your other recipes for those sides. Ideal with small icons that show the picture you have saved for that sides recipe for easy visual.
  • I don’t cook but…

    I usually hate cooking because I’m not creative and a lot of website have fluff. But Crouton seriously takes the hassle out of finding recipes because it just breaks every part of the cooking down for you even when it comes to the grocery list, which is another sore spot for me. Award winning app for a reason. (And I never take the time to write reviews)
  • Groceries tab doesn’t import from recipes

    Adding items to grocery list from a recipe does nothing
  • Love it so much, with one exception

    Everything about this is so well thought out. The timer, clicking on ingredients within the instructions, the meal planner, having folders plus tags available for sorting. I love it. The only thing I hate... And I mean *hate* …is when editing bulk ingredients or instructions if you pull down too hard it closes the window. I never know if I’m at the top of the recipe, so I pull too hard, and then I have to start all over. Sometimes I do this 3x in a row before thinking “just don’t try to look at the top. Save your work and then edit it after.” Otherwise it’s a 10/10 app.
  • Just do it

    This is a simple no frills app that does exactly what you need it to! It’s fast, clean, and imports websites well. The native Mac app is also a plus!
