How Much Is 45.56 Grams of Egg Whites in Tablespoons?
45.56 grams of egg whites equals 3.00 tbsp. Egg whites has a density of 243g per cup. Because grams measure weight and tablespoons measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 45.56 grams of egg whites
- 1 cup of egg whites = 243g
- 45.56g ÷ 243g/cup = 0.19 cups × 16 = 3.00 tablespoons

Measuring Tip
Carton egg whites and yolks have very consistent density, making them easier to measure by volume than freshly separated eggs. If your recipe calls for a specific gram amount, carton products are the most predictable.
