150 Grams of Flour to Cups
150 grams of all-purpose flour equals 1 ¼ cups (1.25 US cups), based on 120 g per cup (spoon-and-level method). In the kitchen, measure 1 cup + 4 tbsp. For best results, weigh all-purpose flour with a scale — cup measurements vary with how the cup is filled.
| US cups | 1 ¼ cups (1.25 cups) |
|---|---|
| Measured as | 1 cup + 4 tbsp |
| Ounces (weight) | 5.3 oz |
| Tablespoons (level) | about 20 tbsp |
| Density used | 120 g per US cup |
Seeing a different answer elsewhere? Sources disagree on flour: King Arthur's spoon-and-level standard is 120 g per cup (our number, giving 1 ¼ cups), while USDA-based tables use 125 g (giving 1 ¼ cups, 1.2 cups). Both are correct for their measuring method — see how we measure.
How to measure 150 g of all-purpose flour without a scale
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.
