With 1 teaspoon of Cinnamon, that equals 2.5 grams.

Explanation

This page answers the practical spoon question directly: how much 1 teaspoon of cinnamon weighs in grams. It uses one ingredient-specific teaspoon factor derived from the same base cup assumption used across the family.

That makes the result more consistent than mixing generic spoon charts. That is especially useful for rubs, spice blends, and recipe scaling where small spoon measures add up quickly. Cinnamon can vary with grind size and how loosely it fills a spoon or cup, so the page keeps one fixed basis for repeatable reference use.

Method & Spoon Basis

  • Method basis: teaspoon-to-weight conversion derived from 120 g per 1 US cup.
  • Applied formula: grams = teaspoons × 2.5.
  • Consistency rule: snapshot, calculator, FAQ, and table use the same ingredient-specific basis.
