How Much Is 1 Tablespoon of Coconut Sugar in Ounces?
Converting 1 tablespoon of coconut sugar to ounces gives 0.40 oz. One tablespoon of coconut sugar weighs 11.25g (0.40 oz). This conversion is specific to coconut sugar because each ingredient has a different density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1 tablespoon of coconut sugar
- 1 tablespoon of coconut sugar = 11.25g
- 1 × 11.25 = 11.25g
- Convert grams to ounces: 11.25 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.40 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Coconut sugar should be spooned into the measuring spoon and leveled off. Do not pack it unless the recipe specifically says to (packing is only standard for brown sugar).

An imperial tablespoon is 17.758 ml. If your recipe comes from Australia, the larger tablespoon size can make a real difference.
