Important Considerations for Whole Wheat Flour:
The weight of 1 Metric Cup (250ml) of whole wheat flour is typically around **125-135 grams** (approx. 4.4-4.76 ounces) when using the "spoon and level" method. This is similar to or slightly heavier than all-purpose flour in a metric cup.
Whole wheat flour includes the bran and germ, which can affect its density and absorption properties compared to white flour.
For consistent results in whole grain baking, **measuring flour by weight (grams or ounces) with a kitchen scale is highly recommended.**
