Measuring 500g of Mashed Ripe Banana in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of mashed ripe banana weighs 225g when measured packed, 500 Grams (500g) translates to 2.22 US cups (2 cups + 3 tbsp + 1 ¾ tsp).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 2 cups + 3 tbsp + 1 ¾ tsp (35.56 tablespoons total) using packed technique. Mash peeled ripe speckled bananas thoroughly with a fork until mostly smooth, then spoon into a dry measuring cup and level. Chunkiness creates trapped pockets, whereas smooth mashed puree settles consistently to 225 grams per cup.
