  • Cup sizes are not standard worldwide, so the same cup of an ingredient can weigh more or less depending on the country. What is a cup measurement

Peanut butter is roasted peanuts ground into a thick, oily paste, sold smooth or crunchy. One metric cup (250 ml) of peanut butter weighs around 268 grams or 9.45 ounces. It is used in cookies, brownies, no-bake bars, satay sauce, and as a spread for toast and sandwiches.

Peanut butter is sticky and clings to measuring cups, so scooping reliably is hard. Weighing in grams gives accurate amounts without the mess of scraping out a cup.

  • smooth peanut butter
  • crunchy peanut butter

Butter is a dairy fat that creams with sugar to build structure and lift, while peanut butter is an oily paste that adds dense flavour. They are close in weight (227 g vs 268 g per cup), so weigh when swapping in cookies and bars; expect a nuttier, denser result from peanut butter. See what 100 grams of butter is in US cups.

Peanuts are the whole form used for crunch and texture where peanut butter adds creaminess. A cup of peanuts (154 g) is much lighter than a cup of peanut butter (268 g); always swap by weight. See what 100 grams of peanuts is in US cups.
