Any wheat flour should work. If you use all whole- wheat flour, you will end up with a heavier bread which is also a bit more crumbly.

Why do you use flour and eggs when you bread?
The flour has more gluten in it and is needed for the bread to rise. Eggs are not often used, most of the bread that you buy in the store does NOT have eggs. Bread that does have egg in it, may have it to help bind the flour and other parts together, but is likely to have egg primarily for flavor purposes. With yeast bread, the gluten that forms usually means that the bread does not need egg to keep it together.

"Baking flour" is not a familiar designation. "Bread flour" has more gluten than "all-purpose" flour, and is the best choice for bread, but "all-purpose" flour is perfectly acceptable and should produce a successful bread dough. "Cake flour" has less gluten, and is formulated for cakes and other products where a tender crumb is desired. Breads made with cake flour might not rise properly.
