Almond Flour — Grams & Cups Converter
1 cup of almond flour (also called ground almonds, almond meal) weighs about 96 g. So 100 g ≈ 1 cup, 200 g ≈ 2 1/8 cups, and 300 g ≈ 3 1/8 cups. Convert any amount between grams, cups, ounces, tablespoons and millilitres with the calculator below.
💡 Tip: Almond flour isn't a 1:1 swap for wheat flour — no gluten, so it won't rise the same. Blanched (skinless) flour is finer; almond meal is coarser with the skins.

Blanched almond flour vs almond meal
Recipes that call for "almond flour" usually mean the fine, blanched (skinless) grind, which packs to about 96 g per cup. Almond meal is coarser and often keeps the skins, so it sits a little lighter and gives a speckled, more rustic crumb. Because almonds are oily, the flour clumps — sift or whisk it before measuring rather than scooping straight from a packed bag.
It is not a 1:1 swap for wheat flour: with no gluten it won't rise, so most recipes pair it with eggs for structure. As a coating for chicken or fish, swap it cup-for-cup for breadcrumbs.
