250 Grams to Cups
250 grams is 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 ¼ cups of granulated sugar or 1 cup + 1.5 tbsp of butter. The exact answer depends on the ingredient.
Tip: Spoon flour into the cup and level it with a knife. Scooping straight from the bag packs in up to 30 g extra.
250 grams converts to 2 cups of all-purpose flour (125 g per cup), 1 ¼ cups of granulated sugar (200 g per cup), 1 cup + 1.5 tbsp of butter (227 g per cup), 1 cup + 2 tbsp of packed brown sugar and 1 cup + 1 tsp of milk. For any other ingredient, divide 250 by its weight per cup.
