How to measure pumpernickel flour
The chart entry is “Pumpernickel Flour, 1 cup = 3 3/4 oz = 106 g”. Every rye flour on the chart lands on the same number: medium rye, white rye and the rye flour blend are all listed at 106 grams per cup. Whole wheat flour is 113 grams and all-purpose flour 120 grams, so a cup of pumpernickel flour holds about 12 percent less than a cup of white flour. Spoon it into the cup and level it; a scooped cup of any flour holds more. For half a cup count 53 grams, for a quarter cup about 27 grams.
Sources: 106 grams per US cup is the weight per cup in King Arthur Baking’s ingredient weight chart (open the chart), entry “Pumpernickel Flour, 1 cup = 3 3/4 oz = 106 g”. A US cup is about 237 milliliters.
