How Much Is 2 Cups of Coconut Flour in Ounces?
2 cups of coconut flour weighs 9.03 oz. This is based on coconut flour having a density of 128g per cup. Because cups measure volume and ounces measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 2 cups.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 2 cups of coconut flour
- 1 cup of coconut flour = 128g
- 2 × 128 = 256g
- Convert grams to ounces: 256 ÷ 28.3495 = 9.03 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Coconut flour absorbs 3-4x more liquid than wheat flour. When substituting, use about 1/4 to 1/3 the amount and add extra liquid or eggs.

Understanding the Units
What is a Cup?
In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.
What is an Ounce?
An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.
