All-purpose Flour: mL to Grams and Grams to mL
If a recipe lists all-purpose flour in mL and your scale reads grams, the short answer is that 100 mL of all-purpose flour weighs about 53 g. All-purpose flour is lighter than water, so the two numbers are never the same.
The Formula
mL to grams: Weight (g) = Volume (mL) × 0.53
Grams to mL: Volume (mL) = Weight (g) ÷ 0.53
Worked Examples
- 15 mL of all-purpose flour = 8 g
- 250 mL of all-purpose flour = 132.5 g
- 200 g of all-purpose flour = 377.4 mL
Common Kitchen Measures
- 1 teaspoon (4.93 mL) = 2.6 g
- 1 tablespoon (14.79 mL) = 7.8 g
- 1/4 cup (59.1 mL) = 31.3 g
- 1/2 cup (118.3 mL) = 62.7 g
- 1 cup (236.6 mL) = 125.4 g
Why All-purpose Flour Weighs What It Does
Flour is a powder full of tiny air gaps, so a cup of it weighs far less than a cup of water. The figure of about 0.53 g per mL assumes flour that has been spooned lightly into the cup.
Measuring Tips
Scooping with the cup packs the flour and can add up to a quarter to the weight. Spoon it in and level it, or better, weigh it. Bakers use grams for exactly this reason.
