That way, you can know whether or not you’re really adding three tablespoons of batter or not. Really, the best way is to use measuring spoons. If you’re still curious about this topic, let’s dive into these frequently asked questions. How much batter per cupcake will depend mainly on the size of the cupcake you’re baking. You will want to scrape off any excess for the best results. While still following the rule of only filling ⅔ of the way full, add about a ½ cup of batter to the pan for jumbo cupcakes. Jumbo-sized cupcake pans are going to require a jumbo amount of cupcake batter. But what about the other side of the spectrum? How much batter should be used in jumbo-sized cupcake pans?
