How to measure agave syrup accurately
For the most reliable baking results, weigh agave syrup on a kitchen scale rather than scooping by volume. One US cup of agave syrup weighs about 330 grams (11.6 oz), but the exact figure changes with how tightly it's packed and the brand. Scooping straight from the bag compacts agave syrup and can leave you 15 to 20% over, so spoon it into the cup and level it off for the closest match to the figures above. Use the tables for quick reference, or the converter for any custom amount in cups, grams, ounces or tablespoons.
Tip: Because agave is sweeter than sugar, you can usually use a bit less; it also browns bakes faster, so lower the oven slightly when substituting.
