The invention belongs to the technical field of food processing, and particularly relates to a food forming method provided with a split type forming mold. The method comprises the following steps: flour wrappers are treated by a flour supply device, the flour wrappers fall on a forming mold located at a flour supply station, the forming mold moves to a stuffing injection station, a stuffing injection device injects stuffing into the flour wrappers of the forming mold, the forming mold continues to move to a forming station, a first forming plate on a forming device and a second forming plateon the forming mold are in press fit with each other, the flour wrappers and the stuffing are subjecting wrapping and forming, the forming mold moves to a push-out station, and a push-out device pushes out formed foods. According to the application, the forming action connection relationship of dumpling foods in the forming process is changed, and the forming mold is split into independent structures, so that the simplification of a complete machine equipment track is realized, a large amount of space can be saved, and meanwhile, the condition that the push-out device is easily interfered or damaged by forming plates on the forming mold in a push-out procedure is also avoided.
