Dry ingredients are spooned into the cup and levelled. Scooped straight from the bag, flour can weigh up to 20% more — for baking, a scale is the safest bet.
Good to know:
- Creamy peanut butter weighs about 258 g a cup, so a standard 16 oz (454 g) jar holds about 1¾ cups.
- Press it into the measuring cup and level it; a lightly oiled cup lets it out cleanly.
- Natural peanut butter separates — stir the oil back in before measuring, or the bottom of the jar comes out dry and dense.
