I am about to make a loaf of Rye bater bread. The use of all purpose white flour not bread flour intrigues me.
When you have a moment could you let me know the reason .
Thanks Patrick

Hi Patrick, with this batter bread, you don’t need a higher protein flour -i.e bread flour. The all purpose flour works well because it is lower in protein.
