How Much Is 10 Ounces of Raisins in Tablespoons?
10 ounces of raisins equals 31.28 tbsp. That's 283.50g, and Raisins has a density of 145g per cup. Because ounces measure weight and tablespoons measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 10 ounces of raisins
- Convert ounces to grams: 10 × 28.35 = 283.50g
- 1 cup of raisins = 145g
- 283.50g ÷ 145g/cup = 1.96 cups × 16 = 31.28 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
To prevent dried fruit from sinking in batter, toss it with a tablespoon of flour before folding in. This does not affect the weight measurement.

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.
