How Much Is 1.07 Pounds of Egg Whites in Cups?
1.07 pounds of egg whites equals 2.00 cups. Egg whites has a density of 243g per cup. A lighter ingredient like flour (125g/cup) would fill more volume at the same weight, which is why ingredient-specific conversions matter.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1.07 pounds of egg whites
- Convert pounds to grams: 1.07 × 453.59 = 485.34g
- 1 cup of egg whites = 243g
- 485.34g ÷ 243g/cup = 2.00 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Carton egg whites and yolks have very consistent density, making them easier to measure by volume than freshly separated eggs. If your recipe calls for a specific gram amount, carton products are the most predictable.
