Measuring 100g of Quick-Cooking Oats in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of quick-cooking oats weighs 85g when measured dip and sweep, 100 Grams (100g) translates to 1.18 US cups (1 cup + 2 tbsp + 2 ½ tsp).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 1 cup + 2 tbsp + 2 ½ tsp (18.82 tablespoons total) using dip and sweep technique. Scoop lightly into a dry measuring cup and sweep level without compacting. Because quick oats are cut into smaller pieces before rolling, their finer geometry yields approximately 85 grams per cup.
