A US tablespoon is smaller at 14.79 ml, so US cooks measuring with US spoons need slightly more. An Australian tablespoon is larger at 20 ml, so it holds about a third more.

  • One metric tablespoon of dried apricot halves weighs about 8.1 grams. A US tablespoon (14.79 ml) holds about 8 grams and an Australian tablespoon (20 ml) about 10.8 grams.
  • A little over or under won't ruin the bake, though it can nudge the final taste or colour.

A bag of dried apricot halves goes into fruit cakes, granola, and trail mixes, and recipes flip between cups and grams without warning. One metric cup of halves weighs about 135 g (4.76 oz), so 200 g of the bag is roughly 1.5 cups. Convert between either when scaling a recipe up or down.

Dried fruit settles in the cup, so the same 1 cup measure can drift from 130 g to 145 g depending on how the halves nest. Use weight when the fruit ratio drives the texture, like a Christmas cake or rugelach.

Got chopped or diced dried apricots instead? They nest tighter, so 1 cup weighs about 160 g rather than 135 g. Use the chopped converter when the recipe specifies the chopped form. See chopped dried apricots in tablespoons.

Craisins are sweetened dried cranberries, smaller and tarter than apricot halves. They pack lighter (120 g vs 135 g per cup), so weigh when swapping and expect a punchy, sweet-tart hit rather than the mellow apricot flavour. See craisins in tablespoons.

Sultanas are bite-sized golden dried grapes, heavier than apricot halves (165 g vs 135 g per cup) and sweeter. Use the sultanas converter when a recipe calls for them by volume, and weigh when the fruit ratio matters. See sultanas in tablespoons.

Raisins are bite-sized dark dried grapes, heavier than apricot halves (165 g vs 135 g per cup) and with a deeper caramel-sweet flavour. Use the raisins converter when a recipe calls for them by volume, and weigh when the fruit ratio matters. See raisins in tablespoons.
