How to convert ounces of cornmeal to cups

Weight ounces first become grams (1 oz = 28.35 g), so 6 oz = 170 g. One US cup of cornmeal weighs 138 g, so 170 ÷ 138 = 1.23 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.

Frequently asked questions

How many cups is 6 ounces of cornmeal?

6 ounces of cornmeal is about 1¼ cups (1.23 cups), based on 138 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). In metric cups, 6 ounces of cornmeal is 1.17 cups.

Should I weigh cornmeal or measure it by volume?

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. Weighing is always more accurate, which is why grams are the safest choice for baking.
