Granola, Cups to Grams & Grams to Cups
1 cup of granola = 120 grams · 100g = 0.83 cups
Granola weighs about 120 grams per cup, but the figure shifts with how clustered and how loaded with nuts and dried fruit a particular mix is. Chunky, clustered granola traps more air and weighs less per cup than fine, loose granola. It is scooped and levelled loosely.

Granola: US, metric & UK cups compared
A “cup” isn’t the same size everywhere, so 1 cup of granola weighs a different number of grams depending on which cup your recipe uses. The US cup is 236.6 ml, while Australia, New Zealand, Canada and modern UK recipes use a 250 ml metric cup. Here’s 1 cup of granola in each:
| Cup standard | Size | 1 cup granola | Used in |
|---|---|---|---|
| US cup | 237 ml | 120 g | United States (most US recipe sites) |
| Metric cup | 250 ml | 127 g | Australia, NZ, Canada & modern UK |
| UK imperial cup | 284 ml | 144 g | Older British recipes |
| Japanese cup | 200 ml | 101 g | Japan |
Unless a recipe says otherwise, US recipes mean the US cup and Australian/UK recipes mean the 250 ml metric cup. The tables higher up this page use the US cup.

Because one cup of granola weighs about 120 grams, you can convert any weight to cups by dividing by 120. So 100g of granola is about 0.83 cups, 200g is about 1.67 cups, 250g is about 2.08 cups, and 300g is about 2.5 cups. For any other amount, type the grams straight into the converter above and switch it to show cups.
How to measure granola accurately
For the most reliable baking results, weigh granola on a kitchen scale rather than scooping by volume. One US cup of granola weighs about 120 grams (4.23 oz), but the exact figure changes with how tightly it's packed and the brand. Scooping straight from the bag compacts granola 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 granola recipes vary so much in density, weigh it where it matters; a cup of clustered granola can weigh noticeably less than a cup of fine, loose oats-and-nut mix.
