For the most consistent results, weigh applesauce on a kitchen scale. Volume measurements of purees can vary depending on thickness and water content.
Understanding the Units
What is an Ounce?
An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.
What is a Tablespoon?
A tablespoon is roughly the volume of a large soup spoon. In precise terms, 1 US tablespoon equals 14.787 ml, which is very close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most of the world. Three teaspoons make one tablespoon.

Approximately. The ounces to tablespoons result for applesauce can vary depending on preparation - how finely it is cut, mashed, or processed. Treat this as a close estimate.
The same weight of different ingredients fills different volumes because each ingredient has a different density. An ounce of applesauce fills a different number of tablespoons than an ounce of a lighter or heavier ingredient. That is why this converter needs to know which ingredient you are measuring.
