How Much Is 12 Tablespoons of Coconut Flour in Grams?
12 tablespoons of coconut flour weighs 96.00 g. This is based on coconut flour having a density of 128g per cup. Because tablespoons measure volume and grams measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 12 tablespoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 12 tablespoons of coconut flour
- 1 tablespoon of coconut flour = 8g
- 12 × 8 = 96g
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 Tablespoon?
Tablespoon sizes differ by country. A US tablespoon is 14.787 ml, close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most countries. An Australian tablespoon is 20 ml, about 35% larger than US. An imperial tablespoon is 17.758 ml. If your recipe comes from Australia, the larger tablespoon size can make a real difference.
What is a Gram?
Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.
