How to measure 1/8 cup of all-purpose flour
By weight (most accurate): set your bowl on a kitchen scale, press tare, and add 15 g of all-purpose flour.
By volume: Use 2 level tablespoons. Most measuring-cup sets do not include a 1/8 cup.
Flour weight depends heavily on how you fill the cup. Scooping straight from the bag packs it down and can add 20–30 g per cup, so spoon it in and level it off, or better yet, weigh it.
Why all-purpose flour weighs what it does
