How Much Is 2.75 Ounces of Maple Syrup in Cups?
Converting 2.75 ounces of maple syrup to cups gives 0.25 cups. First convert to grams (2.75 oz = 77.96g), then divide by the density of maple syrup (312g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 2.75 ounces of maple syrup
- Convert ounces to grams: 2.75 × 28.35 = 77.96g
- 1 cup of maple syrup = 312g
- 77.96g ÷ 312g/cup = 0.25 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Sticky liquids like maple syrup are easier to measure if you lightly oil the measuring cup first. The liquid will slide out cleanly.

Understanding the Units
What is an Ounce?
Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.
What is a Cup?
In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.
