Teaspoons to Tablespoons

1 teaspoon = 0.33 tablespoons

Since 3 teaspoons make a tablespoon, converting teaspoons to tablespoons means dividing by 3. This is useful when a recipe piles up several teaspoons of the same ingredient and you'd rather measure once: 3 teaspoons is 1 tablespoon, 6 is 2, and 9 is 3. For amounts that don't divide evenly, it's usually easier to just keep measuring in teaspoons.

How to convert teaspoons to tablespoons

To convert teaspoons to tablespoons, multiply by 0.33. This is a volume conversion, so it applies to any liquid or dry ingredient measured by volume, water, oil, milk, flour, and more.

Common conversions: 2 teaspoons = 0.67 tablespoons · 4 teaspoons = 1.33 tablespoons · 8 teaspoons = 2.67 tablespoons · 16 teaspoons = 5.33 tablespoons.

Tip: Below 3 teaspoons, don't bother converting — a teaspoon is the more accurate tool for small amounts of leavening, salt and spices.
