An Egg yolk is approx 17 to 22 grams depending on size, average size about 19 grams if this helps.

gg Volume Measurements How many tablespoons equals one egg?

Most recipes call out for Large eggs. One large egg yields little over three and a quarter tablespoons of egg white and egg yolk

4 Large Eggs =4 Extra Large Eggs, Or 5 Medium Eggs

5 Large Eggs =4 Extra Large Eggs, Or 6 Medium Eggs

6 Large Eggs =5 Extra Large Eggs, Or 7 Medium Eggs


How many large beaten eggs yield one cup?

One egg does not yield exactly 3¼ Tablespoons, the variation is shown below.

1 Large egg beaten = 3¼ Tablespoons

2 Large egg beaten = 6½ Tablespoons = (¼ Cup + 2½ Tablespoons)
3 Large egg beaten = 9-2/3 Tablespoons = (½ Cup + 1½ Tablespoons)
4 Large egg beaten = 12¾ Tablespoons = (¾ Cup + 1 teaspoon)
5 Large egg beaten = 1 cup

Just weighed a whole size 7 egg, 63 grams including shell.

Noted that yolk is about 30% of total egg including shell or 33% of just white and yolk would make the yolk in this size egg about 18. 9 grams (virtually 19 grams).

Hopes this really does help.

Cheers.

Cheers.
