Why Does 1 Cup of Coconut Oil Vary?
The weight of 1 cup depends on how you measure. USDA standard (spooned) = 218g.
Standard pour
Pour into measuring cup at eye level. All liquid measurements are consistent — density doesn't change with measuring technique.
ConsistentAbout Coconut Oil Density
Coconut oil is solid below 76°F (24°C) and liquid above. 1 cup solid or liquid = 218g (same weight). Melted coconut oil can substitute for vegetable oil 1:1 by weight. Adds subtle coconut flavor.
Pro tip: For consistent baking results, use a kitchen scale. Weight measurements eliminate the variability of cup measurement entirely. USDA values shown are based on the spooned & leveled method.
