500 grams of eggs (beaten) = 2.06 cups (2⅛ cups / 32.9 tbsp / 98.8 tsp)
Eggs (Beaten) has a density of approximately 243g per cup. Raw, beaten whole eggs — about 4.86 large eggs. Cooked egg volume differs. 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 |

| 450g | 1.85 | 1⅞ | 29.6 | 88.9 |
| 475g | 1.95 | 1⅞ | 31.3 | 93.8 |
| 500g | 2.06 | 2⅛ | 32.9 | 98.8 |

| 600g | 2.47 | 2½ | 39.5 | 118.5 |
How the 500g Figure Is Calculated
500g divided by 243g (the weight of one cup of eggs (beaten)) equals 2.06 cups. Multiplying that by 16 gives 32.9 tablespoons, and by 48 gives 98.8 teaspoons, since one cup always equals 16 tablespoons or 48 teaspoons regardless of the ingredient.
Eggs (Beaten) is denser than water, which weighs about 236g per cup. That's why 500g of eggs (beaten) fills less volume (487ml) than the same weight of water would (501ml). For a side-by-side look at how other ingredients compare, see the 500 grams to cups page.
If Your Recipe Uses Metric or Imperial Cups
The 2.06 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 500g, that's 1⅞ metric cups or 1¾ imperial cups of eggs (beaten), close to the US figure but not identical. The cup standard switch in the converter above recalculates this instantly for any gram amount.
Scaling 500g Up or Down
Doubling a recipe that calls for 500g of eggs (beaten) means weighing 1,000g, or measuring 4.12 cups if you're working by volume instead of weight. Halving it means 250g, or 1.03 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.
Eggs (Beaten) vs. Other Proteins & Eggs
Within proteins & eggs, density still varies by ingredient. At 500g, chicken breast (170g per cup) measures 2⅞ cups, compared to 2⅛ cups for eggs (beaten). Swapping ingredients in a recipe by cup measurement alone, without adjusting for this difference, changes the actual weight used.
Using Eggs (Beaten) in Recipes
- Recipes typically call for this ingredient in amounts ranging from a tablespoon to a full cup, depending on the dish.
- Check your specific recipe for the exact gram amount, then use the converter above to find the matching cup measurement.
How to Measure It Accurately
Proteins & Eggs
Proteins are almost always measured by weight, not volume, since cup measurements are inconsistent for cuts of meat or fish.
For exact results
When a recipe needs a specific weight of a protein, trim visible fat and bone before weighing if the recipe's stated weight assumes trimmed, boneless meat.
