Almond butter is roasted almonds ground into a smooth or crunchy paste, used as a spread and in cookies, smoothies, and energy bars. One metric cup (250 ml) weighs around 256 grams or 9.03 ounces. When a recipe gives almond butter in cups but your jar lists grams, converting by weight saves scraping a sticky cup measure.

Almond butter is thick and clings to cups, so scooping a level cup is hard. Weighing in grams gives accurate amounts without the mess of scraping it all out.
