Storage Tips for Accurate Measurements
Very stable due to low moisture content. Store in a sealed container at room temperature for up to 2 years.
Old or improperly stored coconut flour can absorb moisture from the air, which changes its density. If your flour has been sitting open, it might weigh more per cup than fresh flour. Always store it sealed.
Pro Tips
Absorbs 4-6x its weight in liquid. Use 1/4 the amount of regular flour. Needs extra eggs.
For the most accurate results, always use the same measurement method that the recipe developer used. Most professional recipe developers use the spoon and level method and weigh their ingredients.
Bottom Line
Coconut Flour has a density of 0.54 g/ml. One cup (spoon & level) = 128g. If precision matters for your recipe, use a scale. If you only have cups, use the spoon and level method consistently.
