Can you use baking flour for bread?

Yes, you can absolutely make a 1:1 substitute. For 1 cup bread flour, use 1 cup all-purpose, and vice-versa (note breads and pizza crusts made with all-purpose flour may have a little less chew than those made with bread flour, but results will still be good).

What is the best flour to use for baking bread?

Durum wheat flour has the highest protein of all flour. However, the gluten that forms when water is added is not elastic, so durum wheat needs to be used in combination with other flours. Bread can be made with up to 26% durum wheat flour.

Do you need all purpose flour to make bread?

Although bread flour will give you the best, chewy texture, it’s definitely not a must-have when it comes to baking bread. Especially if you don’t have miles of empty kitchen space, storing multiple flour varieties can be challenging. Instead, you can stock up on all-purpose flour and a small bag of vital wheat gluten.

Can you make white bread with whole wheat flour?

Hopefully you produced a bread with a mild whole wheat flavor that has decent volume and many of the nice properties of the white sandwich loaf we baked in lesson one. If you are ready to try more whole wheat flour in your dough feel free to swap more whole wheat flour for the white flour.

Which is healthier wheat flour or white flour?

The gluten content of the wheat flour is much less concentrated than what is found in white flour. With wheat flour, you will get a slightly denser bread, than with white flour, so you may want to create a mix of both flours to find a healthier and lighter final loaf of bread.

What makes bread flour rise higher than all purpose flour?

One answer is protein content. Bread flour is milled from hard spring wheat, which has a higher protein content than the hard winter wheat used in all-purpose flour. Protein adds strength to dough and enables loaves of bread to rise high.
