How many grams is a quarter cup of dry breadcrumbs?
¼ cup of dry breadcrumbs ≈ 27 g
Because one US cup of dry breadcrumbs weighs about 108 grams, a quarter cup of it is roughly 27 grams. Fine dry breadcrumbs settle densely — fresh breadcrumbs weigh much less per cup.
Recipes that list dry breadcrumbs in cups assume an average density. The figure above is a sensible typical value; if your recipe is sensitive, weigh on a kitchen scale — see our methodology.
