¼ cup granola in grams
¼ cup of granola = 30 grams · 1.06 oz · 4 tbsp
That is a quarter 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 ¼ cup comes to 30 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 ¼ cup of granola works out
One US cup of granola weighs 120 grams, so multiply by 0.25 to get a quarter cup: 120 × 0.25 = 30 g. In the other direction, 30 g of granola divided by 120 brings you back to ¼ cup.
If you have no scales, ¼ cup is 4 level tablespoons of granola (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 31.7 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.
