Measuring Tip
Pour grains into the measuring spoon and level off. Do not shake or tap, as this settles the grains and increases the weight.
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?
Tablespoon sizes differ by country. A US tablespoon is 14.787 ml, close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most countries. An Australian tablespoon is 20 ml, about 35% larger than US. An imperial tablespoon is 17.758 ml. If your recipe comes from Australia, the larger tablespoon size can make a real difference.
Frequently Asked Questions
1 ounce of breadcrumbs is 4.20 tbsp. The conversion depends on the density of breadcrumbs and scales proportionally for any amount.
If you have a kitchen scale, weighing breadcrumbs gives you an exact starting point for this conversion. If you need to measure by volume instead, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge.
Close, but not exactly. The ounces to tablespoons conversion for breadcrumbs may vary slightly between brands depending on moisture content and how the ingredient is measured.
The same weight of different ingredients fills different volumes because each ingredient has a different density. An ounce of breadcrumbs 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.
