Formula and Step-by-Step

teaspoons × 5.10g/tsp = grams
  1. Start with 1.96 teaspoons of yogurt
  2. 1 teaspoon of yogurt = 5.10g
  3. 1.96 × 5.10 = 10.00g

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

Measuring Tip

Yogurt weighs 245g per cup. Spoon it into the measuring spoon without pressing down too firmly.

Understanding the Units

What is a Teaspoon?

A US teaspoon is 4.929 ml, a metric teaspoon is exactly 5 ml, and an imperial teaspoon is 5.919 ml. The metric and US versions are nearly identical (1.4% difference), but the imperial teaspoon is 20% larger. For most spices the difference is negligible, but for leaveners like baking powder it can affect the result.

What is a Gram?

A gram (g) is a metric unit of mass equal to 1/1000 of a kilogram. It is the standard weight measurement for precise baking worldwide. Professional bakers prefer grams because they are more accurate than volume measurements.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 10.00 g, based on yogurt having a density of 245g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of teaspoons by 5.10 (grams per teaspoon for yogurt). For 1.96 teaspoons: 1.96 × 5.10 = 10.00 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh yogurt on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Fat content has a small effect on density. Higher-fat versions are slightly lighter per volume because fat is less dense than water. The difference is usually under 5%, so this conversion works well for standard varieties.
Reverse the conversion: 10.00 g ÷ 5.10 = 1.96 teaspoons. Or use the Grams to Teaspoons converter.
