RecipeBookPlus
by OpenBench
RecipeBookPlus enlarges Minecraft's recipe book with a wider layout and an optional instant crafting action for selected recipes.
What it does
Two extra columns in the recipe book show up to 28 recipes per page, so more entries fit without scrolling. Selecting a recipe with instant crafting places the result straight into the inventory. When several item stacks match, the matching stack is used first, and otherwise the first available slot receives the output.
The layout and crafting behavior are client-side only, so a server does not need the mod and players can join servers without installing it. Fabric API is required, and Mod Menu is optional but recommended for changing the settings. Settings are saved between game sessions. Files are published for Fabric for 26.2, with 1.0.0 as the latest build from 2026-07-31, under the MIT License, and the source code is open source.

Who it’s for: Players on Fabric who use the vanilla recipe book and want a larger layout with faster crafting. Server owners do not need to install it.
How it compares
Instant Crafting is also a Fabric mod for 26.2, but it runs on client and server and is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. No Crafting Inventory targets Fabric for 1.20.4 – 1.21.1, is client-side only and is released under All rights reserved. Enough Crafts is server-side only, released under the MIT License and is published for 1.21.11 alone.
