This handy table will give you the measurement yields of flour and grains. Measurement yields are really important to me when I am in my marathon of baking phases. I need to be as efficient as possible when I am trying to get a lot of baking done in a short period of time. The only way to do this is to plan effectively. I want to be able to make a mega shopping list of all ingredients that I will need and make just one trip to the grocery store. To make a good list you need to know how many units of something you will need in order to get the correct measurement for your recipes. For example I need to know that I will need to buy 1 pound of oats in order to get the 5 cups that I will need for those fantastic oatmeal raisin cookies.

Ingredient Unit = Yield

Cornmeal 1 pound = 3 cups uncooked

Flour, All-Purpose 1 pound = 3-1/2 cups

Flour, Cake 1 pound = 4-1/2 cups

Flour, Whole Wheat 1 pound = 3-3/4 cups

Graham Crackers 16 crackers = 1 cup crumbs

Oats, Old Fashioned 1 pound = 5 cups

Oats, Quick Cooking 1 pound = 5-1/2 cups
