Understanding Flour Measurements

Why Different Flours Have Different Volumes

Different types of flour have varying densities due to their protein content and milling process. This means that one ounce of different types of flour will occupy different volumes:

  • All-Purpose Flour: 10.89 teaspoons per ounce
  • Cake Flour: 13.67 teaspoons per ounce (lighter and fluffier)
  • Bread Flour: 10.75 teaspoons per ounce (denser due to higher protein content)

Professional Baking Tips

For the most accurate results in baking:

  • Use a kitchen scale when possible - weight measurements are more accurate than volume
  • If measuring by volume, fluff the flour with a whisk before measuring
  • Use the spoon-and-level method: spoon flour into the measuring tool, then level off
  • Never pack or compress flour when measuring
