Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 245g/cup × 48 = teaspoons
  1. Start with 85.75 grams of yogurt
  2. 1 cup of yogurt = 245g
  3. 85.75g ÷ 245g/cup = 0.35 cups × 48 = 16.80 teaspoons

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

Measuring Tip

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?

A teaspoon (tsp) is a US customary unit of volume equal to 4.929 milliliters or 1/3 of a tablespoon. It is the standard measure for spices, leaveners, extracts, and other small-quantity ingredients.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 16.80 tsp, based on yogurt having a density of 245g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 245 (grams per cup) to get cups, then multiply by 48 to get teaspoons. For 85.75 grams: 85.75 ÷ 245 = 0.35 cups × 48 = 16.80 tsp.
For the most accurate results, weigh yogurt on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Fat content has a small effect on density. Higher-fat versions are slightly lighter per volume because fat is less dense than water. The difference is usually under 5%, so this conversion works well for standard varieties.
Reverse the conversion: 16.80 tsp ÷ 48 = 0.35 cups, then 0.35 × 245g/cup = 85.75g. Or use the Teaspoons to Grams converter.
