Formula and Step-by-Step

tablespoons × 21.25g/tbsp ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 11.99 tablespoons of honey
  2. 1 tablespoon of honey = 21.25g
  3. 11.99 × 21.25 = 254.79g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 254.79 ÷ 28.3495 = 8.99 oz

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

Measuring Tip

For liquids, place your measuring spoon on a flat surface and read at eye level. The bottom of the meniscus (the curve at the surface) should align with the measurement line.

Understanding the Units

What is a Tablespoon?

One tablespoon holds about 15 milliliters. There are 16 tablespoons in a cup and 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon. In baking, tablespoon measurements are used for butter, oil, honey, and other ingredients where a full cup would be too much.

What is an Ounce?

Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 8.99 oz, based on honey having a density of 340g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of tablespoons by 21.25 (grams per tablespoon for honey), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 11.99 tablespoons: 11.99 × 21.25 = 254.79g, then 254.79 ÷ 28.3495 = 8.99 oz.
Weighing honey 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 honey 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: 8.99 oz × 28.3495 = 254.79g, then 254.79g ÷ 21.25 = 11.99 tablespoons. Or use the Ounces to Tablespoons converter.
