How many grams is one cup of all-purpose flour?

1 cup of all-purpose flour ≈ 120 g

Because one US cup of all-purpose flour weighs about 120 grams, one cup of it is roughly 120 grams. Spoon the flour into the cup and level it off — scooping straight from the bag packs it down and can add up to 20% more flour than a recipe intends.

Recipes that list all-purpose flour in cups assume an average density. The figure above is a sensible typical value; if your recipe is sensitive, weigh on a kitchen scale — see our methodology.
