How to convert ounces of ground flaxseed to cups
Weight ounces first become grams (1 oz = 28.35 g), so 8 oz = 227 g. One US cup of ground flaxseed weighs 100 g, so 227 ÷ 100 = 2.27 cups.
Grains settle when shaken, so pour them in loosely and level off rather than tapping the cup.

Frequently asked questions

Should I weigh ground flaxseed or measure it by volume?
Grains settle when shaken, so pour them in loosely and level off rather than tapping the cup. Weighing is always more accurate, which is why grams are the safest choice for baking.
