Olive Oil — Pounds in Cups
1 pound of olive oil equals 2.1 ( ~ 2 1/8) cups*
About olive oil measurements
Like all fats, olive oil floats on water because it is lighter: about 0.90 g/ml (FAO density database), or 213 g per US cup. Warming it for a dressing makes it expand and thin, so oil measured hot by volume weighs slightly less than the same cup poured cold.
