using whole wheat flour in scones?

Feb 28, 2006 21:50

ok, so in an effort to procrastinate even further this week, i want to make some scones from a recipe a friend wrote out for me (not sure where it is from). I was wondering: would it be ok to use all whole-wheat flour in this recipe? Here, let me write out all the ingredients:


1 1/4 cups soy milk
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup veg oil
3 cups flour
1/3 cup sugar
2 tbsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt

I've never attempted to make scones, vegan or otherwise, so i'm not sure if using whole wheat is workable. I've had horrid results subbing it into other recipes (namely an experimental vegan pumpkin loaf that broke my heart with its disgusting lack of solidification). Advice?

Thanks!

ETA:

Thanks so much for the help, folks! I poked around our (one) health-food store and couldn't find WW pastry flour :( Soooo, i went to plan B and replaced 1/2 the all-purpose flour w/ regular whole wheat flour, and it worked SO WELL! SUCCESS!!! They are really nummy ^__^ thank yoooou!
