How to measure all-purpose flour

Spoon the flour into the cup and level it off with a knife. Scooping straight from the bag packs it down and can add 20% or more, which is the most common reason baked goods turn out dry.

All amounts use the US cup (236.6 mL). A Canadian, Australian or metric cup is 250 mL, about 6% larger; for baking, the gram weights are the safest choice wherever you live.
