How Gram to Teaspoon Flour Calculator Works

1

Enter flour weight in grams

Type the grams of flour from your recipe. Professional bakers prefer weighing flour because scooping can pack it differently each time.

2

Flour density is applied

All-purpose flour has a density of 0.53 g/mL — one of the lightest common kitchen ingredients. Bread flour (0.55 g/mL) and cake flour (0.48 g/mL) differ.

3

Read your teaspoon result

The teaspoon value updates instantly. For larger amounts, refer to the tablespoon or cup equivalents shown.

Flour is notoriously inconsistent when measured by volume. Scooping directly from the bag packs flour tightly, while the "spoon and level" method keeps it lighter. The density of 0.53 g/mL assumes lightly spooned, unsifted all-purpose flour.

Gram to Teaspoon Flour Calculator Formula

teaspoons = grams ÷ (0.53 × 4.92892)

0.53 is the density of all-purpose flour in g/mL. 4.92892 is the volume of one US teaspoon in milliliters.

Reverse formula: grams = teaspoons × 0.53 × 4.92892

Example: 120 g of all-purpose flour (about 1 cup)

1 Density of all-purpose flour = 0.53 g/mL
2 tsp = 120 ÷ (0.53 × 4.92892)
3 tsp = 120 ÷ 2.61233
4 tsp ≈ 45.94
5 120 grams of flour ≈ 45.94 teaspoons (≈ 9.6 tablespoons)

Frequently Asked Questions

1 gram of all-purpose flour equals approximately 0.38 teaspoons.

One teaspoon of all-purpose flour weighs about 2.61 grams.

One cup of all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled) is approximately 120–125 grams, or about 46–48 teaspoons.

Not exactly. Bread flour is slightly denser (0.55 g/mL) than all-purpose (0.53 g/mL), so the teaspoon count per gram will be marginally lower.

Because flour packing varies by method — scooping vs spooning can create a 20%+ difference. A scale gives the same result every time.
