How Much Is 225 Grams of Mashed Banana in Cups?
225 grams of mashed banana equals 1.00 cup. Mashed banana has a density of 225g per cup. A lighter ingredient like flour (125g/cup) would fill more volume at the same weight, which is why ingredient-specific conversions matter.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 225 grams of mashed banana
- 1 cup of mashed banana = 225g
- 225g ÷ 225g/cup = 1 cup
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Mashed banana is commonly used as a fat or egg substitute in baking. When substituting, convert by weight for accuracy.

Understanding the Units
What is a Gram?
Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.
What is a Cup?
In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.
