300 grams of rolled oats = 3.33 cups (3⅓ cups / 53.3 tbsp / 160.0 tsp)
Rolled Oats has a density of approximately 90g per cup. Old-fashioned rolled oats. Quick oats run closer to 95g. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 280g | 3.11 | 3⅛ | 49.8 | 149.3 |
| 290g | 3.22 | 3¼ | 51.6 | 154.7 |
| 300g | 3.33 | 3⅓ | 53.3 | 160.0 |
| 325g | 3.61 | 3⅝ | 57.8 | 173.3 |
| 350g | 3.89 | 3⅞ | 62.2 | 186.7 |
How the 300g Figure Is Calculated
300g divided by 90g (the weight of one cup of rolled oats) equals 3.33 cups. Multiplying that by 16 gives 53.3 tablespoons, and by 48 gives 160.0 teaspoons, since one cup always equals 16 tablespoons or 48 teaspoons regardless of the ingredient.
Rolled Oats is lighter than water, which weighs about 236g per cup. That's why 300g of rolled oats takes up more volume (789ml) than the same weight of water would (301ml). For a side-by-side look at how other ingredients compare, see the 300 grams to cups page.
If Your Recipe Uses Metric or Imperial Cups
The 3.33 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 300g, that's 3⅛ metric cups or 2¾ imperial cups of rolled oats, close to the US figure but not identical. The cup standard switch in the converter above recalculates this instantly for any gram amount.
Scaling 300g Up or Down
Doubling a recipe that calls for 300g of rolled oats means weighing 600g, or measuring 6.67 cups if you're working by volume instead of weight. Halving it means 150g, or 1.67 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.
Rolled Oats vs. Other Dry Goods
Within dry goods, density still varies by ingredient. At 300g, cocoa powder (85g per cup) measures 3½ cups, while protein powder (120g per cup) measures 2½ cups, compared to 3⅓ cups for rolled oats. Swapping ingredients in a recipe by cup measurement alone, without adjusting for this difference, changes the actual weight used.
Where 300g of Rolled Oats Fits in a Recipe
- Overnight oats for one serving typically use 40g to 50g.
- Oatmeal cookies often call for 90g to 150g per batch.
- Granola recipes usually need 250g to 300g as the base.
How to Measure It Accurately
Dry Goods
Spoon into the cup and level off. Ingredients like cocoa powder benefit from a quick sift first to break up clumps.
For exact results
Baking soda and baking powder should always be measured with a dry measuring spoon, leveled flat — a heaping spoonful of either can meaningfully change how a baked good rises.
