Ounces here are ounces of weight (1 oz = 28.35 g), not fluid ounces. One US cup is 8 fluid ounces of volume whatever is in it, but what it weighs in ounces depends on the ingredient: a cup of graham cracker crumbs weighs about 3.6 oz. Why these two are not the same. Decimals for thirds are rounded (1/3 cup is 0.333 cups), and each linked amount opens a page comparing every ingredient at that measure.

About measuring graham cracker crumbs
Graham cracker crumbs are crushed graham crackers, used most often to bind a cheesecake or pie crust, and one US cup weighs about 102 grams. Because the crumb size varies with how finely the crackers are crushed, a food processor gives a finer, more consistent crumb than crushing by hand in a bag, and finer crumbs pack a little denser into the cup. The ratio of crumbs to melted butter is what decides whether a crust holds together or crumbles, so weighing the crumbs keeps that ratio dependable.
Crush crumbs finely and evenly in a food processor for a crust that presses together instead of crumbling.
How many grams is a cup of graham cracker crumbs?
One US cup (240 ml) of graham cracker crumbs weighs about 102 grams. Because a cup measures volume rather than weight, that figure is specific to graham cracker crumbs and does not transfer to any other ingredient: the same cup holds 125 grams of all-purpose flour and 340 grams of honey.

Does it matter which cup my recipe means?
It does, though less than the ingredient itself. This page uses the US legal cup of 240 ml. An Australian metric cup is 250 ml, so a metric cup of graham cracker crumbs comes to about 106 grams, and the old British imperial cup of 284.1 ml holds about 121 grams. See cup sizes by country for every standard side by side.
Frequently asked questions
How many grams is 1 cup of graham cracker crumbs?
One US cup of graham cracker crumbs is about 102 grams. Finer, more even crumbs from a food processor pack slightly denser than hand-crushed pieces.
How many graham crackers make a cup of crumbs?
Roughly nine to ten full-size graham cracker sheets, though this varies by brand. Weighing the crushed crumbs to about 102 grams is more reliable than counting crackers.
How much butter do I need for a graham cracker crust?
A common ratio is about half the weight of the crumbs in melted butter, so 102 grams of crumbs pairs with roughly 50 to 60 grams of butter, enough to bind without turning greasy.
How many grams is 2 1/4 cups of graham cracker crumbs?
2 1/4 cups of graham cracker crumbs weighs 230 grams: 2 cups is 204 grams and the extra 1/4 cup adds 25.5 grams.
How many grams is 2 cups of graham cracker crumbs?
2 cups of graham cracker crumbs weighs 204 grams. That is the dry crumbs alone, before any butter goes in for a crust.
How do you convert cups of graham cracker crumbs to grams?
Multiply the cups by 102, the weight of one US cup of graham cracker crumbs. So 1/2 cup is 51 grams, 1 1/2 cups is 153 grams and 3 cups is 306 grams.
Where this figure comes from
We have not yet found a published reference that states a weight for a cup of graham cracker crumbs. The 102 grams on this page follows the calibration the rest of the site is built on, with butter at 227 grams per cup, water at 240, all-purpose flour at 125 and granulated sugar at 200. Treat it as a good working figure rather than a cited one. If you have a better source, tell us and we will check it and credit you.
Published figures for the same ingredient vary between references anyway, because how an ingredient is packed changes what a cup of it weighs. Treat any cup figure as accurate to within a few percent, and weigh on a scale when a recipe is sensitive. Our full approach is on the methodology page.
