Peanut Butter
Gram to Ounce
Understanding Peanut Butter Conversions
The Math Behind This Conversion
To convert 1 grams of peanut butter to ounces, divide by 28.3495 (the number of grams per ounce). So 1g ÷ 28.3495 = 0oz.
Measurement Tip
Measuring peanut butter by volume is notoriously inconsistent because the pieces don't pack uniformly. Weighing with a kitchen scale gives much more reliable results. The density value we use (1.08 g/ml) represents an average, but your actual measurement may vary by 15-20%.
About Our Data
The density value of 1.08 g/ml for peanut butter is from the USDA FoodData Central database (ID: 172470). This measurement was taken with peanut butter firmly packed into the measuring cup.
