How to convert ounces of coconut oil to cups
Weight ounces first become grams (1 oz = 28.35 g), so 1 oz = 28 g. One US cup of coconut oil weighs 218 g, so 28 ÷ 218 = 0.13 cups.
Fats are close to water in density, so cup and gram amounts stay predictable. Weigh solid fats for the best accuracy.

Frequently asked questions
How many cups is 1 ounce of coconut oil?
1 ounce of coconut oil is about 2 tablespoons (0.13 cups), based on 218 g per level US cup.
Is it different with a UK or Australian cup?
Slightly. UK, Australian and New Zealand recipes use a 250 ml metric cup, which is about 6% bigger than a US cup (236.6 ml). In metric cups, 1 ounce of coconut oil is 0.12 cups.
Should I weigh coconut oil or measure it by volume?
Fats are close to water in density, so cup and gram amounts stay predictable. Weigh solid fats for the best accuracy. Weighing is always more accurate, which is why grams are the safest choice for baking.
