How to Measure Walnuts in Cups
Walnut halves have an irregular shape that leaves significant air space in the measuring cup. Pour them in gently until the cup is full and overflowing, then level off with a straight edge. A cup of walnut halves weighs 120 grams.
Walnuts are commonly used in banana bread, brownies, chocolate chip cookies, and salads. The amount matters — too many walnuts can overpower the other flavors or create a too-dense texture. Use the calculator above to convert any amount from cups to grams.
Pro tip: Store walnuts in the freezer to prevent the natural oils from going rancid. They can be used straight from the freezer in baking — no need to thaw. The oils in walnuts are delicate and susceptible to heat and light.
