Measuring flour correctly is important for achieving the right consistency and texture of your baked goods. The best way to measure flour is by weight rather than by volume. Use a digital kitchen scale and a measuring cup or bowl to weigh your flour in grams or ounces. If you don’t have a scale, you can use a spoon to lightly scoop the flour into a measuring cup and level it off with a knife. Do not pack or tap the flour in the cup, as this will result in too much flour and dry or dense baked goods.
