How Much Is 100 Grams of Peanuts in Tablespoons?
100 grams of peanuts equals 10.96 tbsp. Peanuts has a density of 146g 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 100 grams of peanuts
- 1 cup of peanuts = 146g
- 100g ÷ 146g/cup = 0.68 cups × 16 = 10.96 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Understanding the Units
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.
What is a Tablespoon?
One tablespoon holds about 15 milliliters. There are 16 tablespoons in a cup and 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon. In baking, tablespoon measurements are used for butter, oil, honey, and other ingredients where a full cup would be too much.
