Using the scoop method that I do, there are approximately 3.8 to 4 ounces of almond flour per cup, roughly 4 cups per pound.</p> <p>I don't ever use the fluff method to measure almond flour that most bakers use for regular recipes --this would yield runny results in my recipes.</p> <p>Fluffing is when you dip a spoon into your flour jar/bag and lightly place the flour into the cup, this results in a more light measurement as opposed to scooping or packing.</p> <p>Elana :-)"</p> <p>POSTED 5 HOURS AGO # </p> http://www.elanaspantry.com/forums/topic/almond-flour-pack-or-fluff-and-measure#post-701 Fri, 11 Dec 2009 11:00:13 +0000 Miss Robin 701@http://www.elanaspantry.com/forums/ <p>Carol S mentioned in a reply to another post that she packs her almond flour when measuring and I hadn't heard that anywhere. I think I've read this website from top to bottom, and I don't see that anywhere. I've recently made Elana's Gluten-free sandwich bread 2.0 and didn't pack my flour, and it seemed to come out okay....a little dry for my tastes. I really can't imagine packing the flour and having it be even drier? </p>
