Measuring 16 oz (1 lb) 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, 16 Ounces (453.6g) translates to 4.72 US cups (4 ⅔ cups + 2 ¾ tsp). By contrast, using the lightly packed measure (112g/cup — a 16g per-cup shift), 16 oz occupies 4 cups + 2 ½ tsp (4.05 cups).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 4 ⅔ cups + 2 ¾ tsp (75.6 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.

What is the difference between almond flour and almond meal? ▾
Almond flour is milled from blanched skinless nuts into a fine powder, while almond meal includes dark flecks of skin.
