How to measure 1 cup of honey

By weight (most accurate): set your bowl on a kitchen scale, press tare, and add 340 g of honey.

By volume: Use a 1-cup measure, or 16 tablespoons.

Honey is dense, so a cup weighs much more than a cup of water. Lightly oil the measuring cup and it will slide right out.

Why honey weighs what it does

Honey is about 43% heavier than the same volume of water, which weighs about 237 g per cup. That is why you can't convert cups to grams without knowing the ingredient.
