Sunflower Seed Butter Measurement Converter
Use the tool below to convert sunflower seed butter from the measurements in your recipe to the measurements that you need.
Sunflower seed butter is roasted sunflower seeds ground into a smooth, spreadable paste, popular in school lunches and allergy-friendly baking. One metric cup (250 ml) weighs around 250 grams or 8.82 ounces. When a recipe lists it in cups but your jar shows grams, converting by weight saves scraping a sticky measure.
Seed butter is thick and clings to cups, so a level scoop is hard to judge. Weighing on a scale catches the few grams that cling to a cup and would otherwise be left behind.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are sunflower seed butter and sunbutter the same thing?
- Yes. Sunbutter is another name for sunflower seed butter, so they are the same ingredient and measure identically. A cup of sunflower seed butter weighs 250 grams under either name, and every conversion on this page holds whichever name your recipe uses. Recipes swap the two freely, so you can follow either without changing quantities or weighing any differently.
- What is 0.25 cups of sunflower seed butter in tablespoons?
- 0.25 cups of sunflower seed butter is 4.17 tablespoons. This is the same for any ingredient, since cups and tablespoons are both volume units and do not depend on what you are measuring. One cup is about 16.67 tablespoons, so 0.5 cups is 8.33 tablespoons. Use the volume converter to switch between cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, and millilitres for any amount. Open the volume converter

- 1 tablespoon of sunflower seed butter is 15 grams. Density carries that figure through any quantity, so 2 tablespoons is 30 grams and 1/2 tablespoon is 7.5 grams. Weighing beats measuring by volume here, since how firmly you fill the tablespoon shifts the result a little either way. The converter at the top of this page takes any amount.

- 1 cup of sunflower seed butter in grams is 250 grams. The ratio is fixed, so 2 cups is 500 grams and half a cup is 125 grams. Weighing sunflower seed butter by the cup is the most common way to measure it for baking. The chart above this FAQ lists the cup amounts recipes call for, and the converter at the top handles anything between them.

- 100 grams of sunflower seed butter is 0.4 cups. The conversion scales in a straight line, so 200 grams is 0.8 cups and 50 grams is 0.2 cups. Grams to cups helps when a recipe gives a weight but you measure with cups. The chart above this FAQ covers the other weights cooks measure out.

Related to Sunflower Seed Butter
Peanut Butter
Peanut butter swaps 1:1 by volume for sunflower seed butter and is close in weight (268 g vs 250 g per cup). It brings a stronger roasted, saltier flavour and contains nuts, so use it only where a nut-free result is not required. Texture and bake time stay the same. See our Peanut Butter converter.
Almond Butter
Almond butter is the tree-nut swap, close in weight (256 g vs 250 g per cup) and milder and slightly sweeter. It works 1:1 in the same cookies, bars, and smoothies, though it is not nut-free, so keep sunflower seed butter when allergies are a concern. See our Almond Butter converter.
Hulled Tahini
Hulled tahini keeps the swap seed-based and nut-free, pouring looser and lighter (240 g vs 250 g per cup) with a more bitter, savoury edge. Swap 1:1 in dressings, sauces, and bars; expect a stronger sesame flavour than the mild, earthy taste of sunflower seed butter. See our Hulled Tahini converter.
Unhulled Tahini
Unhulled tahini is the wholegrain sesame swap, slightly lighter per cup (240 g vs 250 g) with a bold, bitter, earthy flavour from the husk. It stays nut-free and works 1:1 in dressings and bars, bringing a much stronger sesame note than mild sunflower seed butter. See our Unhulled Tahini converter.
