Fluid ounces, not weight ounces

This page converts fluid ounces — a measure of how much liquid fits in the cup. 8 US fluid ounces fill exactly 1 US cup, every time.

Weight ounces are different. "8 oz of flour" is a weight, and how many cups that fills depends on the ingredient, because flour, sugar and water all have different densities. There is no single fixed number for weight ounces to cups.

If your recipe measures liquid (water, milk, oil, juice), this page is the right one.

Eight US fluid ounces equal one US cup
