Vegetable Oil — Frequently Asked Questions
218 grams of vegetable oil is exactly 1 US cup. Vegetable oil is a liquid, so the measurement is consistent regardless of how you pour it.
Yes. Water weighs 237g per cup; vegetable oil weighs 218g per cup. All fats and oils are less dense than water — which is why oil floats on water. The density of most vegetable oils is about 0.92 g/ml.
Yes, for most cakes and quick breads. Use 218g of vegetable oil for every 227g (1 cup) of melted butter. The result will be slightly less rich in flavour but often more moist due to oil's 100% fat content vs butter's 80%.
Both are neutral-flavoured plant-based liquid oils and measure identically at 218g per cup. Canola oil is derived from rapeseed and has a slightly lower saturated fat content. For baking and cooking, they are interchangeable.
Pour into a liquid (clear) measuring cup and read at eye level on a flat surface. Or weigh it: 218g per US cup. Weighing is fastest and eliminates the need to wash the measuring cup.
Marginally. Most refined vegetable oils (soybean, canola, sunflower, corn) measure at 216–220g per cup. The differences are negligible for cooking and baking.
