Muffin Tin Cup Size & Volume Conversion (US & Metric)
Approximate volumes for standard, mini, and jumbo muffin tin cups. Volumes are per individual cup.

Volume (US Cups) (approx. per cup) |
Volume (fl oz) (approx. per cup) |
Volume (ml) (approx. per cup) |
| Standard Muffin Cup | ~2.5-2.75" x 1.25-1.5" | ~1/2 cup | ~4 fl oz | ~120 ml |
| Mini Muffin Cup | ~1.75-2" x 0.75-1" | ~1/8 - 1/6 cup (2-2.5 tbsp) | ~1 - 1.3 fl oz | ~30 - 40 ml |

Important Considerations for Muffin Tin Volumes:
- Muffin tin cup sizes and volumes can vary somewhat between manufacturers. These are common approximations.
- The "volume" refers to the capacity of one individual muffin cup in the tin.
- Recipes usually specify to fill muffin cups 2/3 to 3/4 full to allow for rising, so the batter per cup will be less than the total volume capacity.
- When substituting muffin tin sizes, adjust baking time accordingly (mini muffins bake much faster than jumbo).
