Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 3.01 cups of raisins
- 1 cup of raisins = 145g
- 3.01 × 145 = 436.45g
- Convert grams to ounces: 436.45 ÷ 28.3495 = 15.40 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
To prevent dried fruit from sinking in batter, toss it with a tablespoon of flour before folding in. This does not affect the weight measurement.
