How to convert ounces of bread flour to cups
Weight ounces first become grams (1 oz = 28.35 g), so 12 oz = 340 g. One US cup of bread flour weighs 127 g, so 340 ÷ 127 = 2.68 cups.
Spoon flour into the cup and level it with a knife. Scooping straight from the bag packs it down and can add 20–30% more.
