How to Craft End Portal Frames

Gathering the Recipe Ingredients

Instead of searching for a distant stronghold across your world, you can craft your own portal frames directly. To craft an End Portal Frame, gather the following ingredients:

• 5 Eye of Enders
• 1 Dragon Egg
• 3 End Stone

Ensure you have a standard crafting table placed down and accessible at your base.

Assembling the Frame

1. Open your crafting table interface.

2. Place the 5 Eye of Enders, 1 Dragon Egg, and 3 End Stone into the crafting grid.

3. Hover over the output slot to confirm the End Portal Frame recipe, then click to take the crafted frame into your inventory.

Because this recipe requires a Dragon Egg, you will need to defeat the Ender Dragon to obtain your initial egg before crafting additional portal frames. Once crafted, frames can be placed anywhere you choose.
