Correct spelling, explanation: as the s at the end suggests this is a plural form of the base word recipe. The process is quite simple, as there is not much needed, just add the usual -s suffix at the end, and the plural form, recipes, is ready to use, as there is no need to add another e or i.
Definition of recipes:

1. instructions for preparing something, usually food
For her birthday, I gave my mom a book with Greek cuisine recipes.
I tried to make a fancy dinner but all recipes were too complicated for me to follow.
Incorrect spelling, explanation: the word recipies looks like it’s made out of the words reci and pies rather than based on its Latin predecessor recipere. Considering that the proper spelling of this word is recipes, this version is so different both in structure and in spelling that it just can’t be considered correct.
