Use the tool below to convert greek yoghurt from Cup (US) to Grams.

Greek yoghurt (also spelt 'yogurt' in US recipes) is strained yoghurt with a thick, creamy texture and a higher protein content than regular plain yoghurt. One metric cup (250 ml) weighs around 260 grams or 9.17 ounces. It's used in dips, dressings, marinades, frostings, and as a higher-protein swap in cakes and muffins.

Greek yoghurt comes in 150 g pots or 500 g tubs, while recipes often call for cups or tablespoons. Converting between the two stops you reaching for an extra pot mid-recipe or wasting half of one.

Plain yoghurt is looser and a touch lighter than Greek yoghurt (258 g vs 260 g per cup) since it isn't strained. Swap 1:1 in batters and marinades; for thick dips or no-bake desserts that need to hold their shape, Greek yoghurt is the better pick. See our Plain Yoghurt converter.

If you don't have a scale, no worries! Simply convert from grams to cups or tablespoons.
