Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 8.04 ounces of pumpkin puree
- Convert ounces to grams: 8.04 × 28.35 = 227.93g
- 1 cup of pumpkin puree = 245g
- 227.93g ÷ 245g/cup = 0.93 cups × 16 = 14.89 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Mashed and pureed ingredients vary in density depending on texture. A smoother puree packs more densely per cup than a chunky one.
