Measuring 120g of Blanched Almond Flour in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of blanched almond flour weighs 96g when measured spooned & leveled, 120 Grams (120g) translates to 1.25 US cups (1 ¼ cups). By contrast, using the lightly packed measure (112g/cup — a 16g per-cup shift), 120g occupies 1 cup + 1 tbsp + ½ tsp (1.07 cups).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 1 ¼ cups (20 tablespoons total) using spooned & leveled technique. Almond flour contains natural oils that cause clumping; break up clusters with a wire whisk or sieve before measuring.
