How to convert ounces of honey to cups
Weight ounces first become grams (1 oz = 28.35 g), so 6 oz = 170 g. One US cup of honey weighs 340 g, so 170 ÷ 340 = 0.5 cups.
Sugar is fairly consistent by volume, but sticky syrups cling to the cup – grease it first so you get the full amount out.

Frequently asked questions
How many cups is 6 ounces of honey?
6 ounces of honey is ½ cup, based on 340 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, 6 ounces of honey is 0.47 cups.
Should I weigh honey or measure it by volume?
Sugar is fairly consistent by volume, but sticky syrups cling to the cup – grease it first so you get the full amount out. Weighing is always more accurate, which is why grams are the safest choice for baking.
