Any idea why this doesn't work ? Trying to figure it out for 2h now, but don't have a clue what it could be wrong.

Thanks.

Hey Ziga,

You are using api.add_resources with an "s". It should be api.add_resource without the "s"

Keep Coding! :) :dizzy:

    def get(self, id):
        return 'Ingredient'


ingredients_api = Blueprint('resources.ingredients',__name__)
api = Api(ingredients_api)
recipes_api = Blueprint('ingredients.recipes',__name__)   
api = Api(ingredients_api)
  )
api.add_resources(
    Ingredient,
