How Much Is 13.5 Grams of Cornmeal in Teaspoons?
Converting 13.5 grams of cornmeal to teaspoons gives 4.32 tsp. Divide by the density of cornmeal (150g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 13.5 grams of cornmeal
- 1 cup of cornmeal = 150g
- 13.5g ÷ 150g/cup = 0.09 cups × 48 = 4.32 teaspoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Pour grains into the measuring spoon and level off. Do not shake or tap, as this settles the grains and increases the weight.

Understanding the Units
What is a Gram?
A gram (g) is a metric unit of mass equal to 1/1000 of a kilogram. It is the standard weight measurement for precise baking worldwide. Professional bakers prefer grams because they are more accurate than volume measurements.
What is a Teaspoon?
In baking, teaspoon measurements are critical for ingredients where precision changes the outcome. Too much baking soda (1 tsp = 6g) creates a metallic taste, while too little means flat results.
