60 grams equals 1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) of all-purpose flour or powdered sugar, 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) of water or milk, 1/4 cup plus 1 teaspoon of butter (0.26 cup), 2/3 cup of rolled oats, and 4 tablespoons plus 2.5 teaspoons of granulated sugar (0.30 cup). Because grams (g or gm) measure weight and US cups measure volume, converting 60g to cups depends on ingredient density. For any other measurement, use our grams to cups converter.
