750 grams of chickpeas = 4.93 cups (4⅞ cups / 78.9 tbsp / 236.8 tsp)
Chickpeas has a density of approximately 152g per cup. Canned, drained and rinsed. Undrained canned chickpeas (with liquid) weigh closer to 240g per cup. Source: USDA FoodData Central (FDC #173801). 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 650g | 4.28 | 4¼ | 68.4 | 205.3 |
| 700g | 4.61 | 4⅝ | 73.7 | 221.1 |
| 750g | 4.93 | 4⅞ | 78.9 | 236.8 |
| 800g | 5.26 | 5¼ | 84.2 | 252.6 |
| 850g | 5.59 | 5⅝ | 89.5 | 268.4 |
How the 750g Figure Is Calculated
750g divided by 152g (the weight of one cup of chickpeas) equals 4.93 cups. Multiplying that by 16 gives 78.9 tablespoons, and by 48 gives 236.8 teaspoons, since one cup always equals 16 tablespoons or 48 teaspoons regardless of the ingredient.
Chickpeas is lighter than water, which weighs about 236g per cup. That's why 750g of chickpeas takes up more volume (1167ml) than the same weight of water would (752ml). For a side-by-side look at how other ingredients compare, see the 750 grams to cups page.
If Your Recipe Uses Metric or Imperial Cups
The 4.93 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 750g, that's 4⅔ metric cups or 4⅛ imperial cups of chickpeas, close to the US figure but not identical. The cup standard switch in the converter above recalculates this instantly for any gram amount.
Scaling 750g Up or Down
Doubling a recipe that calls for 750g of chickpeas means weighing 1,500g, or measuring 9.87 cups if you're working by volume instead of weight. Halving it means 375g, or 2.47 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.
Chickpeas vs. Other Beans & Legumes
Within beans & legumes, density still varies by ingredient. At 750g, black beans (172g per cup) measures 4⅜ cups, compared to 4⅞ cups for chickpeas. Swapping ingredients in a recipe by cup measurement alone, without adjusting for this difference, changes the actual weight used.
Using Chickpeas 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
Beans & Legumes
Pour into the cup loosely and level the top. Dried beans and lentils don't compress the way flour does.
For exact results
Dried beans roughly double or triple in volume once soaked and cooked, so a recipe calling for a cup of cooked beans needs considerably less than a cup of the dried form.
For every gram amount at once, the chickpeas conversion chart lists chickpeas across the full range from 1g to 1000g in one table.
