How to measure mashed banana

Mashed banana is dense and wet — press out air pockets as you fill the cup.

Because a cup measures volume rather than weight, the most reliable way to measure mashed banana is with a digital kitchen scale. If you are working from cups, keep your technique consistent every time so your results are repeatable. For more, see our guide on baking by weight versus volume.

Mashed banana conversions: FAQ

Why doesn't a cup of mashed banana weigh the same as a cup of water?

A cup measures volume, not weight. Mashed banana is less dense than water (225 g versus 237 g per cup), so the same volume has a different weight. Weighing in grams is the most accurate way to measure it.
