When to Choose Bread Flour

This wheat flour contains gluten and is not safe for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. It is here as a source-flour reference. The converter uses it to estimate replacement amounts; those amounts do not establish a complete gluten-free recipe.

If you’re converting a recipe that calls for this flour, use the Wheat-to-Gluten-Free Calculator to see estimated flour amounts, binder guidance and cases where a recipe-specific flour cannot be converted.

Compare side-by-side in the Flour Database. For conversion amounts, use the Flour Converter. See methodology for data sources.
