Whole wheat flour is different from plain flour. They are high in protein content and there is 14grams of fiber in every 1 cup of whole wheat flour. We can substitute whole wheat flour for 1/4 to 1/3 of all-purpose flour in recipes like cookies, muffins, pancakes where usually all purpose flour is used.
