How Much Is 9 Teaspoons of Coconut Flour in Ounces?
9 teaspoons of coconut flour equals 0.85 oz. Coconut flour has a density of 128g per cup (2.67g per teaspoon), which means it's relatively light compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 9 teaspoons of honey would be 2.25 oz.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 9 teaspoons of coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon of coconut flour = 2.67g
- 9 × 2.67 = 24g
- Convert grams to ounces: 24 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.85 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.

Understanding the Units
What is a Teaspoon?
A US teaspoon is 4.929 ml, a metric teaspoon is exactly 5 ml, and an imperial teaspoon is 5.919 ml. The metric and US versions are nearly identical (1.4% difference), but the imperial teaspoon is 20% larger. For most spices the difference is negligible, but for leaveners like baking powder it can affect the result.
