Introduction

I like to use white whole wheat flour in any recipe calling for regular flour. It is whole grain, but is a better substitute than plain whole wheat flour because it doesn't change the texture as much.
I also keep powdered buttermilk on hand, or substitute nonfat plain yogurt and milk or soymilk for buttermilk--2 parts yogurt and one part milk/soymilk.

(This recipe is one I modified to my taste from another I found on SparkPeople.)
