Formula and Step-by-Step

tablespoons × 19.5g/tbsp = grams
  1. Start with 0.26 tablespoons of maple syrup
  2. 1 tablespoon of maple syrup = 19.5g
  3. 0.26 × 19.5 = 5.07g

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Sticky liquids like maple syrup are easier to measure if you lightly oil the measuring spoon first. The liquid will slide out cleanly.

Understanding the Units

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.

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 5.07 g, based on maple syrup having a density of 312g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of tablespoons by 19.5 (grams per tablespoon for maple syrup). For 0.26 tablespoons: 0.26 × 19.5 = 5.07 g.
Weighing maple syrup on a kitchen scale is strongly recommended. It is thick and sticky, so it clings to measuring vessels. If you must measure by volume, lightly oil the measuring spoon first so it slides out cleanly.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of maple syrup changes slightly with temperature, but the difference is usually less than 1-2% between refrigerator and room temperature. This conversion assumes room temperature.
Reverse the conversion: 5.07 g ÷ 19.5 = 0.26 tablespoons. Or use the Grams to Tablespoons converter.
