100 grams of almond butter = 0.42 cups (⅜ cup / 6.7 tbsp / 20.0 tsp)
Almond Butter has a density of approximately 240g per cup. Well-stirred, creamy style. Source: USDA FoodData Central. This is the figure used everywhere on this page, including the tablespoon and teaspoon values, so the numbers stay consistent whether you're reading the summary line, the table, or the FAQ answers below.
| Grams | Cups | Fraction | Tablespoons | Teaspoons |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 90g | 0.38 | ⅜ | 6.0 | 18.0 |
| 95g | 0.40 | ⅜ | 6.3 | 19.0 |
| 100g | 0.42 | ⅜ | 6.7 | 20.0 |
| 110g | 0.46 | ½ | 7.3 | 22.0 |
| 120g | 0.50 | ½ | 8.0 | 24.0 |
How the 100g Figure Is Calculated
100g divided by 240g (the weight of one cup of almond butter) equals 0.42 cups. Multiplying that by 16 gives 6.7 tablespoons, and by 48 gives 20.0 teaspoons, since one cup always equals 16 tablespoons or 48 teaspoons regardless of the ingredient.
Almond Butter is denser than water, which weighs about 236g per cup. That's why 100g of almond butter fills less volume (99ml) than the same weight of water would (100ml). For a side-by-side look at how other ingredients compare, see the 100 grams to cups page.
If Your Recipe Uses Metric or Imperial Cups
The 0.42 cup figure above uses the US Customary cup (236.588ml). Recipes written outside the US sometimes use a metric cup (250ml) or an imperial (uk) cup (284.131ml) instead. At 100g, that's ⅜ metric cups or ⅓ imperial cups of almond butter, close to the US figure but not identical. The cup standard switch in the converter above recalculates this instantly for any gram amount.
Scaling 100g Up or Down
Doubling a recipe that calls for 100g of almond butter means weighing 200g, or measuring 0.83 cups if you're working by volume instead of weight. Halving it means 50g, or 0.21 cups. Weight scales exactly with simple multiplication; cup measurements compound any scooping error each time they're doubled or halved, so weighing is more reliable the more a recipe is scaled.
Almond Butter vs. Other Condiments & Sauces
Within condiments & sauces, density still varies by ingredient. At 100g, tahini (240g per cup) measures ⅜ cup, while peanut butter (258g per cup) measures ⅜ cup, compared to ⅜ cup for almond butter. Swapping ingredients in a recipe by cup measurement alone, without adjusting for this difference, changes the actual weight used.
Where 100g of Almond Butter Fits in a Recipe
- Almond butter energy balls typically use 120g to 240g per batch.
- Smoothie bowls often call for 30g per serving.
- Almond butter cookies usually need about 250g.
How to Measure It Accurately
Condiments & Sauces
Use a spatula to level thick condiments like peanut butter or tahini after pressing them into the cup to remove air gaps.
For exact results
Stir thick condiments well before measuring, since separation during storage (common in natural nut butters) can make the top and bottom of the jar measure differently.

Why is almond butter's gram-to-cup ratio different from other ingredients?+
Almond Butter weighs 240g per cup because of its own density. Well-stirred, creamy style.
Does a metric or imperial cup change this 100g conversion?+
Yes, slightly. 100g of almond butter is ⅜ metric cups or ⅓ imperial cups, versus ⅜ US cups, since each cup standard holds a different volume.
