Baking Conversions Chart You Can Print
Use a compact set of kitchen conversions while weighing flour for repeatable results.
Quick answer
Common U.S. measures include 3 teaspoons per tablespoon, 16 tablespoons per cup and 8 fluid ounces per cup. Ingredient weights differ, so a cup of flour is not the same weight as a cup of sugar.
What you need
- Keep measuring spoons, a liquid cup and a digital scale beside the chart.
- For a recipe's flour weight, follow that recipe author or flour maker rather than using one universal cup-to-grams number.
How to make it work
- Print this page with your browser or choose Save as PDF for a kitchen copy.
- When scaling a recipe, convert each ingredient to weight where possible, then multiply all ingredients by the same factor.
Checks and useful changes
- Temperature conversion is not exact to one neat integer; 350°F is about 177°C, commonly rounded to 175°C or 180°C depending on the oven.
- Check whether a recipe uses U.S. cups, metric cups or weight before comparing measurements.
