Vanilla Extract Measurement Converter

Use the tool below to convert vanilla extract from the measurements in your recipe to the measurements that you need.

Vanilla extract is a liquid flavouring made by steeping vanilla beans in alcohol and water. One metric cup (250 ml) of vanilla extract weighs about 220 grams or 7.76 ounces, since the alcohol base makes it lighter than water. Most recipes call for it by the teaspoon, where 1 tsp weighs around 4.4 grams.

Recipes usually measure vanilla extract in teaspoons, but bottles list contents in millilitres or fluid ounces. This page converts between teaspoons, grams, millilitres, and cups so you can use whatever measure your recipe gives you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are vanilla extract and pure vanilla extract the same thing?
Yes. Pure vanilla extract is another name for vanilla extract, so they are the same ingredient and measure identically. A teaspoon of vanilla extract weighs 4.4 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 100g of vanilla extract in ounces?
100 grams of vanilla extract is 3.53 ounces. This is the same for any ingredient, since grams and ounces are both weight units and do not change with what you are weighing. 200 grams is 7.05 ounces and 50 grams is 1.76 ounces. Use the weight converter to switch between grams, ounces, pounds, and kilograms for any amount. Open the weight converter
How much does a teaspoon of vanilla extract weigh?
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract in grams is 4.4 grams. The ratio is fixed, so 2 teaspoons is 8.8 grams and half a teaspoon is 2.2 grams.

Measurement Options

Choose from the following measurements to convert from

Related to Vanilla Extract

Vanilla Bean Paste

Paste is denser (310 g vs 220 g per cup) and carries seeds for the speckled look. Swap teaspoon-for-teaspoon; expect a stronger vanilla note and a slight sugar boost from the paste base. See our Vanilla Bean Paste converter.

Vanilla Essence

Essence is synthetic and milder, with a single-note flavour rather than extract's complex aroma. Close in weight (230 g vs 220 g per cup); use up to 1.25 tsp essence per 1 tsp extract for a closer match. See our Vanilla Essence converter.

Maple Syrup

Last-resort swap. Adds warm caramel sweetness rather than vanilla. Fine in oatmeal cookies, pancakes, and granola; avoid in delicate custards or buttercream where vanilla character is doing the heavy lifting. See our Maple Syrup converter.
