Important Considerations for Coconut Flour:
Coconut flour is very light but extremely absorbent. A common standard weight is around **125-130 grams per Metric Cup (250ml)** (approx. 4.4-4.6 ounces) when using the "spoon and level" method.
It cannot be substituted 1:1 for wheat or other gluten-free flours. Recipes typically use a much smaller amount of coconut flour.
For best results in recipes specifically designed for coconut flour, **measuring by weight (grams or ounces) with a kitchen scale is highly recommended.**
