Measuring 400g of Mashed Ripe Banana in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of mashed ripe banana weighs 225g when measured packed, 400 Grams (400g) translates to 1.78 US cups (1 ¾ cups + 1 ¼ tsp).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 1 ¾ cups + 1 ¼ tsp (28.44 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.
