Measuring almond butter by cup and by weight
Almond butter weighs about 272 g per cup, nearly the same as peanut butter. It tends to be drier and more crumbly, especially natural varieties, so stir well and press it into the measuring cup to avoid air pockets. Use it 1:1 by weight for peanut butter in cookies and sauces, but expect a milder flavor.
