Full API documentation

Explanation

Convert grams of all-purpose flour to teaspoons with the teaspoon measure derived from the same ingredient density.

Since 1 teaspoon is 1/48 of a US cup, spoon and cup estimates use the same basis. That is especially useful for baking and dough work, where small differences in flour volume can change hydration and texture. All-purpose Flour can vary with milling, aeration, and scoop style, so the page keeps one explicit basis instead of mixing spooned, packed, and sifted outcomes.

Method & Spoon Basis

  • Method basis: reverse teaspoon conversion anchored to 2.5 g per teaspoon.
  • Applied formula: teaspoons = grams ÷ 2.5.
  • Consistency rule: snapshot, calculator, FAQ, and table use the same ingredient-specific basis.
