How ¼ cup of yogurt works out
One US cup of yogurt weighs 245 grams, so multiply by 0.25 to get a quarter cup: 245 × 0.25 = 61.2 g. In the other direction, 61.2 g of yogurt divided by 245 brings you back to ¼ cup.
If you have no scales, ¼ cup is 4 level tablespoons of yogurt (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 64.7 g.
Tip: Spoon yogurt into the cup and level the top; don't pack it down, or you'll add more than the recipe intends.
