How Much Is 4 Teaspoons of Coconut Flour in Grams?
4 teaspoons of coconut flour weighs 10.67 g. This is based on coconut flour having a density of 128g per cup. Because teaspoons measure volume and grams measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 4 teaspoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 4 teaspoons of coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon of coconut flour = 2.67g
- 4 × 2.67 = 10.67g
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 Teaspoon?
In baking, teaspoon measurements are critical for ingredients where precision changes the outcome. Too much baking soda (1 tsp = 6g) creates a metallic taste, while too little means flat results.
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.
