The Secret to Perfect Baking Starts Here – How to Measure Flour Right!

Add A Pinch

Hi there,

I hope this email finds you ready for some weekend baking. You know how much I love sharing those little tips that make a huge difference in our recipes—whether it's fluffy buttermilk biscuits, tender chocolate cake, or anything in between.

One of the most common questions I get (and one of the biggest reasons baked goods don't turn out quite right) is how to measure flour accurately. Too much flour = dry, dense results. Too little = flat, spreading messes.

That's why I just published a brand-new guide on Add a Pinch: How to Measure Flour Correctly Every Time.

In this post, you'll learn:

  • The most accurate method (weighing on a scale – 120-125g per cup for all-purpose flour)
  • The foolproof spoon-and-level technique when you don't have a scale
  • Common mistakes to avoid (no more scooping straight from the bag!)
  • Tips for different flours, including a handy table of approximate weights for freshly milled flours (like hard white wheat at 125–130g, einkorn at 96–103g, and more)
  • Why this simple step transforms your baking results

I've been baking for well over 30 years, and getting flour measurement right changed everything for me. I want the same consistency for you!

Grab your digital scale (or your measuring cups), fluff that flour, and give it a try with one of your favorite Add a Pinch recipes this weekend. Your biscuits, cakes, and cookies will thank you!

If you bake with this method, I'd love to hear how it goes—drop a reply or tag me on Instagram @addapinch. Your stories and photos always brighten my day!

Happy baking, friends!
