One cup of honey weighs 340 grams — heavier than water and nearly triple the weight of a cup of flour. Dense liquid sweeteners like honey are far easier to weigh than to scrape out of a measuring cup.

If you do measure honey by volume, coat the cup or spoon with a thin film of oil first and the honey slides right out. Better: put your mixing bowl on a scale and pour honey directly in until you hit the grams — zero cleanup, zero loss.

Measuring a cup of honey

Honey doesn't pack, so a level cup is about 340 g. What goes wrong is what stays behind: a tablespoon or more can cling to the cup. Oil the measure first, or weigh it straight into the bowl.

Results use a US customary cup (236.588ml). Spoon and level dry ingredients unless the ingredient name or recipe specifies packed, sifted, melted, chopped, or another condition. Brand, humidity, packing, and measuring technique can change a volume-based result. Reviewed against USDA FoodData Central and King Arthur Baking Ingredient Weight Chart.

Sugars & Sweeteners compared by cup weight

Swapping one type for another changes the weight of a cup, so a recipe written in cups is not portable between them:

Questions

How many cups is 250g of honey?

250 grams of honey is about 0.74 cups — just under ¾ cup.

How much does a tablespoon of honey weigh?

One tablespoon of honey weighs about 21 grams — nearly three times a tablespoon of flour.

Do maple syrup and honey weigh the same per cup?

Close: honey is 340 g a cup and maple syrup 322 g. They can swap by volume in most recipes, though honey is sweeter and browns faster.

Can I substitute honey for sugar?

Use about ¾ cup honey per 1 cup sugar, reduce other liquids by 3 tablespoons, and drop the oven temperature by 25 °F (about 15 °C): honey browns more quickly than sugar.
