Hi there,
You can use a plugin like Custom Post Type Permalinks to change that. I’ve just tested the /%category%/%postname%/ one which seems to work fine.
Kind regards,
Brecht
Did some testing, but that does work but ends up having a issue with duplicate content with it being accessible through two urls even with recipe archive turned off.
The recipe is still accessible through both links:
domain.com/recipe/category/post
and
domain.com/category/post
To make sure recipe archive was off, I tried domain.com/recipe/ and that returned page not found.

It’s accessible through both, but the /recipe/ one isn’t used anywhere and just redirects to the normal one. Is there an issue with that?
Did some general testing through my phone and I’ll check again later tonight, but I don’t see any redirect between the two links. Maybe it’s my side though too.

Even if it doesn’t redirect (which it does on my test website) there should be a canonical URL set that points to the one without /recipe/ which tells crawlers that it’s the same as the other page, so that shouldn’t impact you.
