Baking Measurement FAQ
Everything you need to know about measuring ground almonds and converting baking units.
One standard US cup of ground almonds (also known as almond meal or almond flour) weighs approximately 96 grams. This is the widely accepted standard used by major baking authorities for precise recipe formulation.
Ground almonds (or almond meal) are typically made from almonds with their skins on, resulting in a coarser texture and speckled appearance. Almond flour is usually made from blanched (skinless) almonds and ground more finely. However, their weight per cup is virtually identical (approx. 96g).
For the most accurate measurement, use a digital kitchen scale. If you must use cups, first fluff the ground almonds with a spoon to aerate them, gently spoon them into the measuring cup, and level off the top with a straight edge. Do not pack or tap the cup, as this compacts the almonds and leads to over-measuring.
No, ground almonds cannot be substituted 1:1 for wheat flour in most recipes. Almonds contain no gluten, absorb moisture differently, and are much denser in fat. Recipes specifically designed for ground almonds (like macarons or flourless cakes) must be followed precisely.
