60 grams to tablespoons converter (calculator)

Use the converter, or calculator, below to convert 60 grams, or any weight, into tablespoons. Enter the number of grams, pick your ingredient, and it shows the amount in tablespoons and teaspoons.

How to convert 60 grams to tablespoons (60 grams to tbsp)

While general conversions between volume and weight units are straightforward, conversions between weight and volume are a bit more complicated.

It turns out that converting a specific ingredient measured in grams to tablespoons or cups isn't as straightforward as it seems to be.

And it is easy to explain. A gram is a unit of weight in the metric system, and a tablespoon is a volume unit.

So there is no exact conversion factor for converting from grams to tablespoons since it depends on the specific ingredient's density.

For example, 60 grams of brown sugar isn't equal to 60 grams of all-purpose flour if measured in tablespoons.

Why is that? Because the mentioned ingredients have different densities, the number of tablespoons won't be the same.

Also, different countries use different tablespoon sizes. Here is the tablespoons value:

Tablespoons US fluid ounces (fl oz)Milliliters ( ml)
US tablespoon 0.5 fl oz14.7868 ml
Metric tablespoon0.5 fl oz15 ml
Imperial tablespoon 0.600475 fl oz17.7582 ml
Australian tablespoon0.67628 fl oz20 ml

All the measurements for dry ingredients below are for a level spoon, where tablespoons are abbreviated as T, TB, tbsp, tbl, or tbs, and grams - g or gm.

When should you convert grams to tablespoons?

Converting grams to tablespoons is handy when a recipe lists a small metric weight, but you would rather measure with spoons than drag out a scale.

Amounts around 60 grams often appear in cookie and biscuit doughs, so this is useful for a batch of Palet Breton shortbread, some Italian shortbread cookies, or festive Alsatian Bredele.

Converting 60 grams to tablespoons lets you follow the recipe with just measuring spoons.

What is a gram?

A gram is a metric unit of mass that tells you how heavy an ingredient is, regardless of how much space it takes up.

Weigh 60 grams of flour and 60 grams of honey, and the scale reads the same for both, even though the flour looks like a much bigger pile.

Bakers who work in grams prefer this consistency, since a scale is quicker and more precise than spoon-scooping.

What is a tablespoon?

A tablespoon is a unit of volume that measures the space an ingredient fills, with a US tablespoon holding about 14.8 milliliters.

Because a light powder and a dense liquid pack into a spoon differently, the same 60 grams becomes a different number of tablespoons for each one.

That is why 60 grams of flour reaches 7.7 tablespoons in the chart, while 60 grams of honey needs only 2.8.
