Convert Almond Meal from Cup (US)

Almond Meal Measurement Converter

Use the tool below to convert almond meal from Cup (US) to the measurement that you need.

Almond meal is made from ground whole almonds — skins and all — giving it a slightly coarser, nuttier texture than blanched almond flour. One metric cup (250 ml) of almond meal weighs approximately 100 grams or 3.53 ounces, though this can vary depending on how finely it has been milled. It's a staple in gluten-free and low-carb baking, and works beautifully in frangipane, macarons, crumble toppings, and flourless cakes.

Because almond meal is coarser and lighter than regular flour, it can be tricky to measure consistently by volume — a loosely scooped cup can weigh quite a bit less than a packed one. Weighing in grams is the most reliable approach, and this page makes it easy to convert between grams, cups, ounces, tablespoons, and more.

Almond flour is made from blanched (skinless) almonds, so it's finer, lighter in colour, and more neutral in flavour than almond meal. You can swap them 1:1 in most recipes — using almond flour in place of almond meal will give a lighter crumb, a paler result, and a subtler almond taste. See our Almond Flour converter.

If you don't have a scale, no worries! Simply convert from grams to cups or tablespoons.
