Bread flour has a different texture when baked - opposed to reg flour. Bread flour is what gives you that soft chewy taste that is used with cinnamon rolls, bagels, breads. However, Depending on what your making, reg flour can be used. Like for rolls , biscuits , muffins.. just make sure if using yeast that you let it proof first. Put yeast in bowl and add whatever warm liquid recipe calls for. Add about tsp sugar. Mix. Cover and set aside about 10-15 min. Yeast should have risen a bit and a foam type topping. Its ready to use. You then just follow rest of recipe and add to yeast mixture. So to answer your question/ yes, flour can be substituted. It just may not be as chewy as with bread flour....
