Pecans Measurement Converter

Use the tool below to convert pecans from Ounces to Cup (US).

Pecans are used in pies, cookies, brownies, pralines, and salads. One metric cup (250 ml) of pecan halves weighs around 109 grams or 3.84 ounces. When a recipe calls for pecans by the cup, packing tightly can add 20% or more over a loosely poured measure.

Pecan halves are irregular in shape, so they fill a cup with more air than denser ingredients. Weighing gives a consistent amount every time.

Also known as

  • pecan nuts
  • pecan halves

Peanuts and pecans are both whole nuts used in baking, but they have different flavours and densities. Peanuts weigh more per cup (154 g vs 109 g), so always convert by weight when swapping. See our Peanuts converter.

Cashew nuts can replace pecans in many baking recipes for a milder flavour. Cashews are denser than pecans (145 g vs 109 g per cup), so always swap by weight. See our Cashew Nuts converter.

Walnuts are close in weight to pecans (106 g vs 109 g per cup) and work in many of the same recipes, but walnuts have a more bitter, earthy taste. Swap by weight when substituting. See our Walnuts converter.

Crushed walnuts are slightly denser than pecans (124 g vs 109 g per cup) and work in many of the same baking recipes. Swap by weight when substituting one for the other. See our Crushed Walnuts converter.
