Puffs made of
whole-wheat flour
instead of white flour are also an example of a thin batter that is
made
light by aeration.
If desired, graham flour may be substituted for the
whole-wheat flour, but if it is a coarser bread will be the result.
This
coarseness, however, does not refer to the texture of the bread, but is
due to the quantity of bran in graham flour. Whole-wheat puffs are
attractive, and besides they possess the valuable food
substances contained in whole-wheat flour, eggs, and milk.
