5 ounces of coconut flour equals 1.11 cups. That's 141.75g, and Coconut flour has a density of 128g per cup. Because ounces measure weight and cups measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 5 ounces of coconut flour
- Convert ounces to grams: 5 × 28.35 = 141.75g
- 1 cup of coconut flour = 128g

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
