How to measure chickpea flour accurately
For the most reliable baking results, weigh chickpea flour on a kitchen scale rather than scooping by volume. One US cup of chickpea flour weighs about 92 grams (3.25 oz), but the exact figure changes with how tightly it's packed and the brand. Scooping straight from the bag compacts chickpea flour and can leave you 15 to 20% over, so spoon it into the cup and level it off for the closest match to the figures above. Use the tables for quick reference, or the converter for any custom amount in cups, grams, ounces or tablespoons.
Tip: Whisk chickpea flour with liquid and let it rest 20–30 minutes before cooking; this hydrates it fully and tames any raw, bitter edge.
