While you're watching Ratatouille on Disney+, it's kind of hard not to crave a little ratatouille yourself. Not to mention, the Pizza Planet pizza from Toy Story and bao buns from Bao always look tasty AF. That's why getting your hands on a few recipes of Pixar treats you can make at home will only help bring all the movies and shorts you love to life.

Imagine treating yourself to a delicious Jack-Jack cookie while you rewatch Incredibles 2. It sounds like a sweet plan for your next movie night in. The only thing that would make these recipes even better is if you had a little assistance in the kitchen, like Remy, pulling the strings. Although, these recipes are easy to follow for anyone who's new in the kitchen or has major skills.

A cute idea for your next date night with bae could be combining dinner and a movie with one common theme. Whip up any of these Pixar-themed foods in the kitchen, and then, enjoy them while watching your favorite Pixar movies. You could even throw yourself a Pixar-themed birthday party with a delicious spread. Or perhaps you simply want a taste of Disneyland while you're at home. Whatever the case may be, it's time to put on your apron and get to the kitchen, because despite it being Disney, these dishes aren't going to make themselves.

01Bao From 'Bao'

As adorable as the bao may be in the Pixar short, Bao, it still makes your mouth water for some steamed buns. Use a recipe straight from Pixar. This tutorial even features an adorable animated bao that'll put a smile on your face while you're working in the kitchen.
