How ½ cup of applesauce works out
One US cup of applesauce weighs 244 grams, so multiply by 0.5 to get half a cup: 244 × 0.5 = 122 g. In the other direction, 122 g of applesauce divided by 244 brings you back to ½ cup.
If you have no scales, ½ cup is 8 level tablespoons of applesauce (24 teaspoons), because a US cup holds 16 tablespoons. In a 250 ml metric cup — the Australian, New Zealand and modern UK standard — the same fraction is 129 g.
