Oh great. Now I want to lay out all my own recipes like this.

Absolutely love this way of setting it up! but it's only almost perfect. It has weight in mass instead of volume and temperature converted to celsius. I only need a proper measure of the pan and it would let me make it without any conversions.
I have never seen that in my life and it's perfect.
This example is imperfect because you also need to mix the dry ingredients together before the folding in. I know that but it looks like this chart assumes everyone knows it. But the idea is sound. I like it.
...and this table would still work, since you could write this in that empty square at the bottom!
It's actually kind of crap. The first two lines are things you do, then suddenly it shifts to lines being ingredients and columns being things you do. As someone else pointed out, it's not completely obvious which ingredients go into the mixing step one after the other. Also, if you have a recipe where you have steps to make ingredients used later on, it kind of falls apart.
I would not want to use this to make lasagna!
Because normal people are idiots. They are not going to understand any of this whatsoever. That's why you have to put the actual instructions with the ingredients.
I do my recipe cards like this
Ah yes, recipes for people who think "what do you mean you can't cook, the recipe is right there."
Usually because they've never examined why people don't rave about their pie crusts or cake texture.
I started to draw recepts as git trees with mermaid. This presentation is just better.
I’ve also invented similar recipe design on note cards, mainly because I fucking hate having to find quantities of things I didn’t premeasure.
Fuck mise en place I want to see quantities as o add them.
