Cup & Gram

2/3 Cup of Flour in Grams

2/3 cup of all-purpose flour weighs 80 grams (about 2.8 oz), based on 120 g per US cup (spoon-and-level method). That's the same as 10.7 tablespoons of all-purpose flour. When a recipe's outcome depends on accuracy — especially baking — weigh it instead of measuring by cup.

Few measuring sets include a 2/3 cup, so this is normally 2 × 1/3 cup (40 g each). Without a 1/3 measure either, 10 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons is exact.

No 2/3 cup measure? Use spoons

2/3 cup is exactly 10 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons, which is 80 g of all-purpose flour. Measuring spoons are stamped to a tighter tolerance than cups, so for small amounts the spoon route is usually the more accurate one even when you do own the cup.

Halving and doubling 2/3 cup

Scaling a recipe is the usual reason this conversion comes up, and grams scale cleanly where cup fractions do not:

How to measure 2/3 cup of all-purpose flour

Spoon flour into the cup with a spoon, then level the top with a straight edge — never scoop the cup into the bag. Scooping compresses flour and can pack in 20–30% more (140 g+ instead of 120 g), which is the single most common reason baked goods turn out dry. Sifted flour runs lighter still, about 110 g per cup.
