1 Cup Almond flour in Grams

1 cup of almond flour weighs:

96 g

US cup (240 ml)

100 g

Metric / AU cup (250 ml)

American recipes mean the 240 ml cup; Australian, British and New Zealand recipes mean the 250 ml metric cup. If the recipe does not say, the cuisine usually tells you — see the full cups to grams guide.

Almond flour (almond meal) is about 96 g per cup — considerably lighter than wheat flour, which is why gluten-free recipes that substitute it by volume so often fail. Swapping by weight fails too, since almond flour has no gluten and absorbs liquid differently.

Frequently asked questions

How many grams is 1 cup of almond flour?

1 US cup of almond flour is 96 g. In an Australian, UK or NZ metric cup (250 ml) it is 100 g. Weighing is more accurate than measuring by volume.

How many grams is half a cup of almond flour?

Half a US cup of almond flour is 48 g, and three-quarters of a cup is 72 g.

Can I substitute almond flour for plain flour cup for cup?

Not reliably. A cup of almond flour is 96 g against 125 g for plain flour, and it has no gluten to build structure and much more fat. Use a recipe written for almond flour rather than converting one.

Is almond meal the same as almond flour?

Broadly yes, though almond meal is usually ground from skin-on almonds and is coarser, while almond flour is blanched and finer. The weight per cup is close enough to treat as the same.
