How to Measure Peanut Butter in Cups
Peanut butter is best measured by weight rather than volume because it's so sticky and dense. Measuring it in a cup is messy — you need to pack it firmly to eliminate air pockets, then scrape it all out. Weighing 258 grams directly from the jar is much faster and more accurate.
Natural peanut butter (with the oil separated) should be well stirred before measuring to ensure consistent density. Use the calculator above to convert cups to grams for any recipe amount.
Pro tip: Spray your measuring cup or spoon with cooking spray before measuring peanut butter. It slides right out, leaving almost no residue and saving time on cleanup.
