Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.97 tablespoons of applesauce
- 1 tablespoon of applesauce = 15.25g
- 0.97 × 15.25 = 14.79g
- Convert grams to ounces: 14.79 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.52 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
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.
