½ cup of granola = 60 grams · 2.12 oz · 8 tbsp
That is half a cup, spooned in loosely and levelled, since pressing it down can add half as much again. A full US cup of granola weighs 120 g, so ½ cup comes to 60 g. Use the converter for any other amount.
Based on a measured density of 120 g per US cup (236.6 ml), spooned in loosely and levelled. Last reviewed .
How ½ cup of granola works out
One US cup of granola weighs 120 grams, so multiply by 0.5 to get half a cup: 120 × 0.5 = 60 g. In the other direction, 60 g of granola divided by 120 brings you back to ½ cup.
If you have no scales, ½ cup is 8 level tablespoons of granola (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 63.4 g.
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.
