Not usually. Most flours are ground wheat, but "whole wheat" flour is usually too dense and contains too much gluten and protein to rise well and you may find the texture more like corn bread than an actual light cake texture. Even when baking bread, whole wheat flour is mixed with plain white flour to improve texture and rising ability.

∙ 11y agoNo, wholemeal bread mix should not be used as a substitute for wholemeal flour. Wholemeal bread mix contains other ingredients in addition to flour, including a leavening agent, salt, sugar, flavorings and preservatives.

∙ 15y agoBaking with whole wheat flour (Replace no more than half of the all-purpose flour with this and add half again as much baking powder plus a bit more liquid to the recipe. Compared to all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour makes baked goods denser and coarser in texture. It provides more fiber but about the same nutrients as enriched all-purpose flour.)

∙ 9y agoYes, but the resulting product will not be the same as a loaf made with regular all-purpose flour. The loaf will be somewhat heaver and the texture may be more moist than desired. You would need to experiment with slightly longer cooking time.

Is bread a fiber rich food?
well obviously yes. the flour is made up of the whole of the wheat including the part with all the fibre in it. if you take a look at wholemeal flour it has bits in it when you sieve it. that's the fibre.Yes, but wholemeal shouldn't be confused with wholewheat. Wholemeal flour contains around 85% of the grain and produces a bread that contains more fibre than white flour. Wholewheat includes all of the grain and provides more fibre than white and wholemeal. Wholewheat flour makes a denser loaf with less available gluten to aid rising of the dough, hence the more popular use of wholemeal.
Can you use white flour to make chapati?

What is better White bread or whole wheat bread?
Yes, it is. white flour used to make white bread is bleached and processed (some countries use nasty chemicals to do this). The Brown flour is much less refined, and a more 'natural' product. White bread may also contain more sugars and additives. This is, of course, subject to which brand of bread you buy! Read the label, the less confusing chemical names in the list and the higher up the list the flour and water is, the better.

How can a simple bread recipe be adapted to add more fiber?
Add wheatgerm, and some more water. Or, use wholemeal flour (but again, you need to add more water than the recipe suggests). Linseeds also add fibre, as do other seeds - just mix them in with the dough (no need for more water).
