Baking Measurements

Sometimes when I'm not sure about a recipe but want to try it anyway, I scale down the recipe to 50% of the original. In those circumstances, I found it very difficult to calculate 50% of ¾ cup, or to measure 50% of 1.5 tablespoon, etc. Then I found this handy table in my "Baking for Dummies" book. For instance ¾th of a cup is equal to 12 tablespoons, so half of it would be 6 tablespoons.

Here are the frequently asked questions on baking measurements

      Hi Ethel, these are measurement charts I found off the internet in various places and consolidated as one page. I have not tried each one of them except for a few. So I'm unable to comment much.

      If you use a kitchen scale, that has grams and ml so you can weigh everything on there.

    So yesterday, I was making a dinner rolls recipe which calls for essentially 325 grams of flour, which roughly equates to 11.46 ounces according to google.

    But then again, the recipe was given in cups too, which was written as 2 + 1/2 cups which according to google and the measuring cups which I have, give me 20 oz!

    This absolutely did not make sense to me because if 325 gm of flour equates to 11.46 oz, then how does 2+ 1/2 cups not equal to 11.46 oz and instead equals to 20 oz?

    Then again, the amount of milk needed is written as 150 ml, which equates to 5.29 oz on google and when I used my measuring cups, it equals to 5.29 too! Which is so weird because I had the measuring problem with flour!

    So at first, I went ahead with 5.73 oz but the dough was just TOO wet, nothing like the video I saw and I had to use a ton of extra flour. The buns came out great, even if they did not pass the windowpane test.

    I am just having a very hard time understanding measurement now and it is eating away at my brain!

      I know, I can understand the situation very well. I too have got used to baking following only US standard size cup measurements. These days I have started avoiding recipes which has measurements only in gms.

      You're welcome, Nen. Meringue and macaroons require eggs. Please look for vegan recipes for the same in the web. I'm yet to try one. I haven't used an OTG oven so not sure if there is any specific tips/tricks to be followed. Sorry that I cannot help you with that.

    Thank you for this! I’m a beginner in baking and this would help me improve the quality of my baked goods as weight measurements are more accurate (according to few articles). This would also save me time calculating different measurements.

    Thank you for sharing this!

      I'm not running a bakery, Nbn. It's just a recipe blog where I post tried and tested recipes. All-purpose flour is refined wheat flour or maida.

    Lady, you are awesome!! thank you so much for all that you have accomplished by doing what you love. What an inspiration!! I have tried your eggless chocolate cake recipe and it has always been great, especially for my mum and her friends. Even my meat eating friends love it.

    For some drama, i vary the size of my circular pans. it gives a great stepped effect to the layers of the cake. Instead of frosting, I have sometimes used blackberries or raspberries (reduced by cooking in butter, orange juice and cinnamon) as a slurpy topping. Never disappoints 🙂

    Thanks again for exposing me to the joys of making the sweet treats!
