How Much Is 6 Tablespoons of Coconut Flour in Ounces?
6 tablespoons of coconut flour weighs 1.69 oz. This is based on coconut flour having a density of 128g per cup. Because tablespoons measure volume and ounces measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 6 tablespoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 6 tablespoons of coconut flour
- 1 tablespoon of coconut flour = 8g
- 6 × 8 = 48g
- Convert grams to ounces: 48 ÷ 28.3495 = 1.69 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.
