Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1.39 cups of mashed banana
- 1 cup of mashed banana = 225g

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Ripeness affects density. Riper fruit mashes more smoothly and packs more densely per cup than firmer fruit. Weigh for the most consistent results.

Understanding the Units
What is a Cup?
There are three cup standards used worldwide. The US cup (236.588 ml) is used in American recipes. The metric cup (250 ml) is standard in Australia, New Zealand, and some parts of Asia. The imperial cup (284.131 ml) appears in older British and Canadian recipes. A metric cup holds about 5.7% more than a US cup, while an imperial cup holds about 20% more. Using the wrong standard can noticeably affect a recipe.
What is a Gram?
Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.
