How Much Is 1 Tablespoon of Coconut Flour in Ounces?
1 tablespoon of coconut flour equals 0.28 oz. Coconut flour has a density of 128g per cup (8g per tablespoon), which means it's relatively light compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 1 tablespoon of honey would be 0.75 oz.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1 tablespoon of coconut flour
- 1 tablespoon of coconut flour = 8g
- 1 × 8 = 8g
- Convert grams to ounces: 8 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.28 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Coconut flour clumps when stored. Sift or whisk it before measuring for consistent results.

An imperial tablespoon is 17.758 ml. If your recipe comes from Australia, the larger tablespoon size can make a real difference.
