Measuring Tip

Ripeness affects density. Riper fruit mashes more smoothly and packs more densely per cup than firmer fruit. Weigh for the most consistent results.

Understanding the Units

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.

What is a Gram?

Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 50.02 g, based on applesauce having a density of 244g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of tablespoons by 15.25 (grams per tablespoon for applesauce). For 3.28 tablespoons: 3.28 × 15.25 = 50.02 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh applesauce on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Weight-per-cup values vary because of differences in how the ingredient is measured (spooned vs scooped), grind size, moisture content, and settling during storage. Our values use standardized measurement methods from established culinary references.
Reverse the conversion: 50.02 g ÷ 15.25 = 3.28 tablespoons. Or use the Grams to Tablespoons converter.
