Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1.67 grams of steel cut oats
- 1 cup of steel cut oats = 160g
- 1.67g ÷ 160g/cup = 0.01 cups × 48 = 0.50 teaspoons

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 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.
