Typical averages from standard kitchen reference charts; your ingredients can differ by around 10 percent, especially flour and brown sugar. Tablespoon values are one sixteenth of a cup.

How to measure without a scale

  1. Stir flour in its bag to loosen it.
  2. Spoon it into the cup until it overflows; do not shake or tap the cup.
  3. Level it with the back of a knife.
  4. Pack brown sugar firmly; it should hold the cup shape when turned out.
  5. For sticky ingredients like honey, oil the cup first so everything slides out.
