If out of bread flour what can be used instead when baking various breads?
If you're out of bread flour, all-purpose flour can be used as a substitute, though it may result in a slightly softer texture and lower rise. You can also mix all-purpose flour with vital wheat gluten to mimic the higher protein content of bread flour. Alternatively, whole wheat flour can be used, but it may require adjustments in hydration and may lead to denser bread. For a gluten-free option, consider using a gluten-free flour blend designed for baking.
