Best Answer

Wheat bran is slightly lighter in weight, but it shouldn't make that much difference. It probably has a little more of a flavor, but is probably not a big enough factor in any recipe to matter.

Not really, The amount of bran in whole wheat flour is small, approximately 40 grams (9%) of bran per pound of flour. Another 50-60 grams of whole wheat flour is the germ leaving the remaining 350 grams or so being the endosperm or bulghur which is what white flour is , mostly. That being said, bran flakes are not flour anymore and they usually have other ingredients, they'd need to be milled down into a flour for use. If you want to add bran to the flour add about 1 tbs per cup of flour.

Wheat Bran is just one ingredient in bran flakes, and not the same thing. Substitute cornflakes instead.

Since they have some sugar in them the result would be slightly sweeter using Wheaties, but they should work. Crush them finely so your measurements work out.
