How Much Is 1 Tablespoon of Oat Flour in Ounces?
1 tablespoon of oat flour weighs 0.20 oz. This is based on oat flour having a density of 92g 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 1 tablespoon.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1 tablespoon of oat flour
- 1 tablespoon of oat flour = 5.75g
- 1 × 5.75 = 5.75g
- Convert grams to ounces: 5.75 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.20 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Humidity affects oat flour weight. In humid conditions, flour absorbs moisture and weighs more per cup. Store it in an airtight container for consistent results.

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 an Ounce?
Weight ounces and fluid ounces are different measurements. A fluid ounce measures volume (29.574 ml), while an ounce measures weight (28.35g). They only align for water, where 1 fl oz weighs approximately 1 oz.
