Frequently asked questions

How many teaspoons is 2 grams of baking powder?

2 grams of baking powder is ½ teaspoon, based on 192 g per level US cup.

Is a teaspoon the same everywhere?

Almost. US and UK tablespoons hold about 15 ml and teaspoons about 5 ml. Australia is the exception: an Australian tablespoon is 20 ml (4 teaspoons), so use ¾ of an Australian tablespoon to match a US one.

Should I weigh baking powder or measure it by volume?

Use proper measuring spoons, not cutlery – a dinner teaspoon can hold anywhere from 3 to 7 ml. Weighing is always more accurate, which is why grams are the safest choice for baking.
