Converting white flour to whole-wheat flour in recipes.?We Answered:
I would make it 1 1/2 c whole wheat or look at it as 2 (1 c) formulas but I'd leave out the 2 tablespoons. Most recipes tell you to convert half of the flour to whole wheat because it will leave the product like cardboard. Up to you.Vickie Said:

Lorraine Said:
When substituting whole wheat flour in recipes that call for AP flour must you alter the measurements?We Answered:
No, you don't have to. But you shouldn't substitute only half of the AP flour for whole-wheat to maintain the right texture of the baked good. I usually do half whole-wheat and half AP flour.
