How Much Is 27 Teaspoons of Chickpeas in Grams?
27 teaspoons of chickpeas weighs 112.50 g. This is based on chickpeas having a density of 200g per cup. Because teaspoons measure volume and grams measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 27 teaspoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 27 teaspoons of chickpeas
- 1 teaspoon of chickpeas = 4.17g
- 27 × 4.17 = 112.5g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
These conversions are for dry, uncooked chickpeas. Cooked legumes absorb water and have a completely different weight per cup.

Understanding the Units
What is a Teaspoon?
In baking, teaspoon measurements are critical for ingredients where precision changes the outcome. Too much baking soda (1 tsp = 6g) creates a metallic taste, while too little means flat results.
What is a Gram?
Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.
