As a side note

Love it, but I rarely bake anymore because I just want to eat it all. Would like to find a good recipe for a protein-dense zucchini bread that tastes good, if such a thing exists.0

Does anyone know if using a different type of flour would help reduce calories?0
-
I don't know about calorie reduction but I have heard that using wheat flour, almond flour or oat flour is better for you than reg white flour. I have never used almond or oat or anything like that.
I have used wheat flour and it changes the consistency of what your baking. Wheat flour is more dense and will make whatever you bake more dense.
Not sure about the other types tho. Mostly because they are just not economical for me at this time.0 -
Eh, the calorie reductions from different wheat flour types are pretty negligible at best - usually about a 10-20 calorie difference per 1/4c. When you get into alternative flours like almond, the calories can start to mount up. It is part of the reason why going gluten free doesn't necessarily lead to weight loss. A lot of the flour replacements for baking have significantly more calories in them per serving compared to wheat flour.0
