Metric cups and other cup sizes
The figures above use the US customary cup of 236.6 ml. A metric cup is 250 ml, so a metric cup of mashed banana weighs about 238 grams. UK recipes that say "cup" usually mean a 250 ml metric cup, which is why weighing in grams is more reliable than measuring by volume.
Measuring mashed banana accurately
Mash bananas until completely smooth before spooning them into a dry measuring cup, then level the top with a straight edge. Lumpy mash traps air and leads to inaccurate volume readings every time. Weighing mashed banana is always preferable because ripeness significantly changes both moisture content and overall density.
