Measuring 16 oz (1 lb) of Oat Flour in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of oat flour weighs 92g when measured spooned & leveled, 16 Ounces (453.6g) translates to 4.93 US cups (4 ¾ cups + 2 tbsp + 2 ¾ tsp). By contrast, using the scooped from bag measure (104g/cup — a 12g per-cup shift), 16 oz occupies 4 ⅓ cups + 1 ¼ tsp (4.36 cups).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 4 ¾ cups + 2 tbsp + 2 ¾ tsp (78.89 tablespoons total) using spooned & leveled technique. Spoon lightly and level. Oat flour is exceptionally light and fluffy; shaking the cup causes severe settling.
