How ¼ cup of applesauce works out
One US cup of applesauce weighs 244 grams, so multiply by 0.25 to get a quarter cup: 244 × 0.25 = 61 g. In the other direction, 61 g of applesauce divided by 244 brings you back to ¼ cup.
If you have no scales, ¼ cup is 4 level tablespoons of applesauce (12 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 64.5 g.
Tip: To cut fat in a cake or muffin, replace up to half the oil or butter with an equal amount of unsweetened applesauce; replacing all of it can turn bakes rubbery.
