Measuring 450g of Coconut Flour in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of coconut flour weighs 112g when measured spooned & leveled, 450 Grams (450g) translates to 4.02 US cups (4 cups + ¾ tsp). By contrast, using the scooped from canister measure (128g/cup — a 16g per-cup shift), 450g occupies 3 ½ cups (3.52 cups).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 4 cups + ¾ tsp (64.29 tablespoons total) using spooned & leveled technique. Spoon gently into cup and level. Because coconut flour absorbs 3 to 4 times its weight in moisture, weigh on a digital scale.
