Creating a cooking recipe type is just like creating a custom recipe type with extra steps. Vanilla minecraft abstracts classes for furnaces and cooking recipe types so we'll use them to save some time and code! If it is your first time creating a container block, you should go check this tutorial before: screenhandler

The final result of this tutorial can be found here: https://github.com/Legorel/CookingRecipeExample

First we need our furnace, for this our class will extends AbstractFurnaceBlock. Some of the classes will be created later :

TestFurnace.java

// Do not forget that we need every class to extends the abstract furnace classes or it won't work!
public class TestFurnace extends AbstractFurnaceBlock {
    public TestFurnace(Settings settings) {
        super(settings);
    }
 
    @Override
    public @Nullable BlockEntity createBlockEntity(BlockView world) {
        return new TestFurnaceBlockEntity();
    }
 
    @Override
    public void openScreen(World world, BlockPos pos, PlayerEntity player) {
        //This is called by the onUse method inside AbstractFurnaceBlock so
        //it is a little bit different of how you open the screen for normal container
        BlockEntity blockEntity = world.getBlockEntity(pos);
        if (blockEntity instanceof TestFurnaceBlockEntity) {
            player.openHandledScreen((NamedScreenHandlerFactory)blockEntity);
            // Optional: increment player's stat
            player.incrementStat(Stats.INTERACT_WITH_FURNACE);
        }
    }
}

Now we need or BlockEntity, some classes will be created later :

TestFurnaceBlockEntity.java

public class TestFurnaceBlockEntity extends AbstractFurnaceBlockEntity {
    //Since we already now the BlockEntityType and RecipeType we don't need them in the constructor's parameters
    public TestFurnaceBlockEntity() {
        super(CookingRecipeExample.TEST_FURNACE_BLOCK_ENTITY, CookingRecipeExample.TEST_RECIPE_TYPE);
    }
 
    @Override
    public Text getContainerName() {
        //you should use a translation key instead but this is easier
        return Text.of("test furnace");
    }
 
    @Override
    public ScreenHandler createScreenHandler(int syncId, PlayerInventory playerInventory) {
        return new TestFurnaceScreenHandler(syncId, playerInventory, this, this.propertyDelegate);
    }
}

Now we need to register or Block, BlockItem and BlockEntity :

CookingRecipeExample.java

public class CookingRecipeExample implements ModInitializer {
public static final String MOD_ID = "cookingrecipeexample";
 
    public static final Block TEST_FURNACE_BLOCK;
    public static final BlockEntityType TEST_FURNACE_BLOCK_ENTITY;
 
    static {
        //Block
        TEST_FURNACE_BLOCK = Registry.register(Registry.BLOCK, new Identifier(MOD_ID, "test_furnace"), new TestFurnace(FabricBlockSettings.of(Material.METAL)));
        //BlockItem
        Registry.register(Registry.ITEM, new Identifier(MOD_ID, "test_furnace"), new BlockItem(TEST_FURNACE_BLOCK, new Item.Settings().group(ItemGroup.DECORATIONS)));
        //BlockEntity
        TEST_FURNACE_BLOCK_ENTITY = Registry.register(Registry.BLOCK_ENTITY_TYPE, new Identifier(MOD_ID, "test_furnace"), BlockEntityType.Builder.create(TestFurnaceBlockEntity::new, TEST_FURNACE_BLOCK).build(null));
    }
 
    @Override
    public void onInitialize() {  
    }
}

Now we will create the recipe class, again we need to extend some vanilla classes :

TestRecipe.java

public class TestRecipe extends AbstractCookingRecipe {
    //Same for the BlockEntity, we don't need some of the parameters in the constructor since we already now the type
    public TestRecipe(Identifier id, String group, Ingredient input, ItemStack output, float experience, int cookTime) {
        super(CookingRecipeExample.TEST_RECIPE_TYPE, id, group, input, output, experience, cookTime);
    }
 
    @Override
    public ItemStack getRecipeKindIcon() {
        return new ItemStack(Items.BLACKSTONE);
    }
 
    @Override
    public RecipeSerializer<?> getSerializer() {
        //The Serializer will be created later
        return CookingRecipeExample.TEST_RECIPE_SERIALIZER;
    }
}

Then we need to register it :

CookingRecipeExample.java

public class CookingRecipeExample implements ModInitializer {
    [...]
    public static final RecipeType<TestRecipe> TEST_RECIPE_TYPE;
 
    static {
        [...]
        TEST_RECIPE_TYPE = Registry.register(Registry.RECIPE_TYPE, new Identifier(MOD_ID, "test_furnace"), new RecipeType<TestRecipe>() {
            @Override
            public String toString() {return "test_furnace";}
        });
 
    }
}

This is where it gets different from a normal recipe type, you can make your own serializer if your furnace works differently from vanilla one or just register a new CookingRecipeSerializer to save some code :

CookingRecipeExample.java

public class CookingRecipeExample implements ModInitializer {
    [...]
    public static final RecipeSerializer<TestRecipe> TEST_RECIPE_SERIALIZER;
 
    static {
        [...]
        TEST_RECIPE_SERIALIZER = Registry.register(Registry.RECIPE_SERIALIZER, new Identifier(MODID, "test_furnace"), new CookingRecipeSerializer<>(TestRecipe::new, 200));
    }
}

There is just one problem, CookingRecipeSerializer uses an interface RecipeFactory that we don't have access to. We could just make our own serializer but this will mean that we couldn't use the classes like AbstractFurnaceBlockEntity because of some Generic Types. To counter this we will use an Access Widener to get access to the interface. The tutorial on Access Widener can be found here : accesswideners

AW path : .../src/main/resources/modid.accesswidener

cookingrecipeexample.accesswidener

accessWidener v1 named
 
accessible class net/minecraft/recipe/CookingRecipeSerializer$RecipeFactory

Now we need to add our AW to fabric.mod.json and build.gradle

fabric.mod.json: .../src/main/resources/fabric.mod.json

fabric.mod.json

{
  [...],
  "accessWidener": "cookingrecipeexample.accesswidener"
}

build.gradle

minecraft {
	accessWidener "src/main/resources/cookingrecipeexample.accesswidener"
}

After that you need to reload gradle changes and the RecipeFactory interface should now be public !

Now we need to create our screen handler so the furnace's inventory can work. We still need to emove some of the constructor's parameters since we already now their value :

TestFurnaceScreenHandler.java

public class TestFurnaceScreenHandler extends AbstractFurnaceScreenHandler {
    public TestFurnaceScreenHandler(int i, PlayerInventory playerInventory) {
        super(CookingRecipeExample.TEST_FURNACE_SCREEN_HANDLER, CookingRecipeExample.TEST_RECIPE_TYPE, RecipeBookCategory.FURNACE, i, playerInventory);
    }
 
    public TestFurnaceScreenHandler(int i, PlayerInventory playerInventory, Inventory inventory, PropertyDelegate propertyDelegate) {
        super(CookingRecipeExample.TEST_FURNACE_SCREEN_HANDLER, CookingRecipeExample.TEST_RECIPE_TYPE, RecipeBookCategory.FURNACE, i, playerInventory, inventory, propertyDelegate);
    }
}

Unfortunately, there is no easy way to create a custom recipe book screen since they are hard-coded in Enums. We'll use the furnace recipe book screen instead.

Then we register it :

CookingRecipeExample.java

public class CookingRecipeExample implements ModInitializer {
    [...]
    public static final ScreenHandlerType<TestFurnaceScreenHandler> TEST_FURNACE_SCREEN_HANDLER;
 
    static {
        [...]
        TEST_FURNACE_SCREEN_HANDLER = ScreenHandlerRegistry.registerSimple(new Identifier(MOD_ID, "test_furnace"), TestFurnaceScreenHandler::new);
    }
}

The last thing we need to do is add the Screen, we will need to register it in the client-side:

TestFurnaceScreen.java

@Environment(EnvType.CLIENT)
public class TestFurnaceScreen extends AbstractFurnaceScreen<TestFurnaceScreenHandler> {
    //You can replace the background with whatever you like, just remember there will always be the recipe book button
    private static final Identifier BACKGROUND = new Identifier("textures/gui/container/furnace.png");
 
    public TestFurnaceScreen(TestFurnaceScreenHandler handler, PlayerInventory inventory, Text title) {
        super(handler, new FurnaceRecipeBookScreen(), inventory, title, BACKGROUND);
    }
}

And we register it:

CookingRecipeExampleClient.java

@Environment(EnvType.CLIENT)
public class CookingRecipeExampleClient implements ClientModInitializer {
    @Override
    public void onInitializeClient() {
        ScreenRegistry.register(CookingRecipeExample.TEST_FURNACE_SCREEN_HANDLER, TestFurnaceScreen::new);
    }
}

Then we add our ClientModInitializer in the fabric.mod.json file, just change the package to yours:

fabric.mod.json

"entrypoints": {
  "main": [
    [...]
  ],
  "client": [
    "fr.legorel.cookingrecipeexample.client.CookingRecipeExampleClient"
  ],
  "server": []
},

Now it is the time to test our recipe type, before continuing you should make sure that every class we created is imported in the classes where they are used. To create our recipe we simply follow the official way: https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Recipe#JSON_format

Recipe path: .../src/main/resources/data/modid/recipes/test_recipe.json

test_recipe.json

{
  "type": "cookingrecipeexample:test_furnace",
  "ingredient": {
    "item": "minecraft:stone"
  },
  "result": "minecraft:diamond",
  "experience": 0.2
}

And finally, we can run our client and test our new furnace and recipe type:

We have our recipe type, our furnace, but no textures for our block. You can learn how to add visuals to your block here : giving_your_block_visuals

But don't forget that we extended AbstractFurnaceBlock, this mean our block already have 2 BlockState, one for the direction it is facing and the other for when it is lit or not. You can find a tutorial on BlockStates here: adding_models_for_your_blockstates

Just in case, i'll put the furnace blockstates file as an example:

resources/assets/modid/blockstates/test_furnace.json

  "variants": {
    "facing=east,lit=false": {
      "model": "minecraft:block/furnace",
      "y": 90
    },
    "facing=east,lit=true": {
      "model": "minecraft:block/furnace_on",
      "y": 90
    },
    "facing=north,lit=false": {

    },

    }
  }
}
