Can i use bread flour to make muffins??

[XmasFairyGrrrl]

Just went to get my flour and it was all damp and mouldy (yuk) but i have some perfectly good white bread flour. Can i make muffins with it, or will they turn out wrong?

May be OK - you can't make bread with 'ordinary flour'. I guess they don't have the same texture, but in muffins then it may not be as noticeable - not much help then

thanks anyway- perhaps i'll give it a go later

my DH makes crumble with our bread flour (somehow he just doesn't see the self raising just next to it !) - and it is ok.

I'd think they'd be ok - there's extra gluten in bread flour.

Hmm, they may come out a bit tough and chewy, according to this page.

I made them with bread flour and they were OK - just not as light and fluffy as they should have been. But still edible. Well, DD ate them
