	If you just don't have ww pastry flour, then you can use all all-purpose flour (1 2/3 cup), or you should be able to sub another flour such as almond with very little problem.    If you are looking for a gluten-free bread, you may need a bit of xanthan gum since there are no eggs in this bread. With a bit of xanthan you can sub the alternate flours (almond works well) for the flour 1:1. If you don't have xanthan gum and can tolerate eggs, than use 2 eggs in place of the flax seed and water, and use your alternate flours in place of the all-purpose and ww pastry flour for a good gf bread.    Good luck!
