Frequently Asked Questions
How many grams in a cup of all-purpose flour?
One cup of all-purpose flour weighs approximately 125 grams when spooned and leveled.
Why does my flour measurement vary?
How you scoop flour affects weight significantly. Spooning and leveling gives ~125g, while dipping the cup directly can yield 140-160g.
Can I substitute all-purpose flour with bread flour?
Yes, but bread flour has more protein (12-13% vs 10-12%), which can make baked goods chewier.
