Breadcrumbs (dry): cups to grams
Dry breadcrumbs weigh about 108 g per cup; panko, with its larger, airier flakes, only 50 to 60 g. Fresh breadcrumbs vary with the bread but land near 45 g per cup. Substituting panko for dry crumbs by volume gives half the weight.
1 cup breadcrumbs (dry) = 108 g · 1 tbsp = 6.8 g · 100 g = 0.93 cups
Based on 108 g per US cup of breadcrumbs (dry), spooned and levelled. Real-world cups vary by about ±10 % for powders.
How to measure breadcrumbs (dry)
Scoop and level for dry crumbs. For panko use 55 g per cup.
Weight is the only measure that does not depend on the container or on how the ingredient was filled. The figure of 108 g per US cup comes from USDA FoodData Central; other charts differ by a few percent, which is within the spread between two cooks filling the same cup.
