Simple Recipes
by Koyloman
Simple Recipes adds a set of new crafting recipes to Minecraft Java Edition, in a Forge mod for version 1.20.1 only.
What it does
Eight new recipes are added to the game, and the mod is intended to be used with JEI, where the recipes can be looked up in-game. Recipes for new items become available through the usual crafting, smelting and other recipe screens, so players do not need a separate interface to find them.
The mod runs on Forge and works in both single-player and multiplayer, since the server and every player need it installed. Only the 1.20.1 game version is covered, and the single published build is 1.0.0, released on 2026-02-04 on the alpha channel. The mod was created with MCreator, and the code is closed, under All rights reserved.
