Whole Wheat Flour Conversion: Cups to Grams

Whole wheat flour is milled from the entire wheat kernel — bran, germ, and endosperm — giving it a denser texture and richer, nuttier flavour than white flour. It is higher in fibre and nutrients. Recipes using whole wheat flour often require slightly more liquid to compensate for the bran absorbing moisture.
