Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 253g/cup × 48 = teaspoons
  1. Start with 126.5 grams of egg yolks
  2. 1 cup of egg yolks = 253g
  3. 126.5g ÷ 253g/cup = 0.5 cups × 48 = 24.00 teaspoons

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

One large egg white weighs approximately 30g and one large egg yolk weighs approximately 17g. Weighing separated eggs is more reliable than counting, since individual eggs vary in size.

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?

One teaspoon holds about 5 milliliters. There are 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon and 48 teaspoons in a cup. Teaspoon accuracy matters most with leaveners like baking powder and baking soda, where small differences affect rise and texture.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 24.00 tsp, based on egg yolks having a density of 253g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 253 (grams per cup) to get cups, then multiply by 48 to get teaspoons. For 126.5 grams: 126.5 ÷ 253 = 0.5 cups × 48 = 24.00 tsp.
The most accurate way is to weigh egg yolks on a kitchen scale, since individual eggs vary in size. If measuring by volume, pour into the measuring spoon and read the level at eye height.
Weight-per-cup values vary because of differences in how the ingredient is measured (spooned vs scooped), grind size, moisture content, and settling during storage. Our values use standardized measurement methods from established culinary references.
Reverse the conversion: 24.00 tsp ÷ 48 = 0.5 cups, then 0.5 × 253g/cup = 126.5g. Or use the Teaspoons to Grams converter.
