Not your standard loaf, no. The reason that bread flour is called strong flour (or at least it is in the UK) is because it contains a lot of gluten. Gluten is the protein that holds the whole thing together when bread rises. If you don't have much gluten then your bread can't hold it's shape when it rises and will collapse. The end result is still edible, but not light and fluffy like the inside of a loaf should be, instead it will be dense and chewy. Not ideal for Sandwiches!

∙ 11y agoThere are some bread recipes that call for self-raising (aka "self-rising") flour, but in general, basic yeast bread recipes do not use self-raising flour. They are leavened by the action of the yeast instead.

∙ 13y agoSelf-rising flour can be used to make certain types of bread such as biscuits, muffins and quick breads. It could be used for yeast breads, but the baking powder in the flour would not noticeably change the rise created by the yeast. The amount of salt in any recipe also should be adjusted when using self-rising flour.

∙ 10y agoSelf rising flour contains a leavening agent in addition to flour. To substitute bread flour for self rising flour, you will need to add either baking soda or baking powder as well. Depending on the amount of flour used, you should add about 1 teaspoon baking soda or up to 1 tablespoon baking powder.
