HOW TO PROPERLY MEASURE FLOUR

The proper way to measure flour, especially when baking, is to lightly stir the flour, using a spoon. Then you spoon the flour into a dry measuring cup. Use a butter knife, spatula or other straight edge item to  level the flour. It is important to avoid shaking the cup as this packs the flour.

I suggest avoiding enriched all-purpose flour. It comes from red wheat and is bleached and refined. Try white whole wheat flour. It comes from white wheat and is a whole-grain item. You can always use almond flour or other low/no carb flours. Measure them all as above, unless the recipe tells you otherwise.
