Frequently asked questions

How many grams is 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour?

1/2 cup of all-purpose flour is 63 grams, based on 125 g per level US cup.

Is it different with a UK or Australian cup?

Slightly. UK, Australian and New Zealand recipes use a 250 ml metric cup, which is about 6% bigger than a US cup (236.6 ml). Using a metric cup, 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour would be 66 g.

Should I weigh all-purpose flour or measure it by volume?
