Multigrain biscuits were formulated by blending refined wheat flour with barley and buckwheat flours in the ratios of 100:0:0::WF:BF:BWF; :100:0::WF:BF:BWF; 80:20:0::WF:BF:BWF; 70:20:10::WF:BF:BWF;60:20:20::WF:BF:BWF;50:20:30::WF:BF:BWF; 40:20:40::WF:BF:BWF; 30:20:50::WF:BF:BWF. Incorporation of buckwheat flour led to increase in mean calcium, iron and zinc contents of the biscuits. Among the blends the highest mean calcium of 68.96 mg/100g, iron of 9.22 mg/100g, zinc of 5.28 mg/100g were observed in treatment T8 (30:20:50::WF:BF:BWF). In terms of taste and flavour scores,T8 (30:20:50::WF:BF:BWF) was also adjudged the best treatment for the development of multigrain biscuits, whereas highest colour score of 8.05, texture score of 7.96 and overall acceptability score of 7.95 were observed in T1 (100:0:0::WF:BF:BWF).Biscuits were stored for a period of 90 days during which there was a significant decline in mineral contents as well as sensory attributes. Economically, the blended biscuits were found to be cheaper as compared to commercially available multigrain biscuits.

The present study was conducted to develop buckwheat cookies supplemented with wheat flour.Buckwheat and wheat flour were examined for their proximate composition. Buckwheat flour contained11.6% moisture, 15.79% crude protein, 1.81% crude fat, 1.83% ash, 0.70% crude fibre content and 68.27%NFE, while wheat flour contained moisture content 13.12%, crude fibre content 1.93%, crude fat 1.42%,crude protein content 12.53%, ash content 1.57% and 69.43% NFE, respectively. Wheat flour was incor-porated into buckwheat flour at 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50% ratio to make composite flour and the developedcookies were analysed for quality evaluation. Supplementation of wheat flour significantly influenced theproximate and mineral composition of buckwheat flour based cookies. Moisture contents, crude fibrecontents and NFE (Nitrogen Free Extract) increased, whereas crude fat, crude protein and ash contentsdecreased. Mineral contents (Fe, Ca, K, Zn and Mg) of developed buckwheat cookies decreased withincrease in wheat flour supplementation levels. Sensory characteristics of supplemented cookies increasedwith increase in supplementation levels of wheat flour and were acceptable by judges in terms of test,colour, texture and overall acceptability. Cookies developed from C 50% C supplementation level of wheatflour got maximum scored points while C0 control C0 was found to be more nutritious and gluten freehaving more crude protein and mineral contents when compared to supplemented cookies.

This study was conducted to explore the possibility of substitution of wheat flour with 10%, 20%, 30%, 35% and 40% buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) flour and to formulate bread with improved nutritional value along with acceptable nutritional and sensory attributes, and to compare with locally available breads. The results showed that the ash (0.80-1.21%), protein (10.11-16.23%), fat (4.88-5.85%), fiber (0.07-0.19%), energy (301-322 kcal/100g) and mineral contents were increased with the increasing content of buckwheat flour in the bread preparation. Physical characteristics were decreased with the increasing content of buckwheat flour. On sensory evaluation, bread formulated with 30% buckwheat flour was found acceptable. In comparison with locally available breads, 30% buckwheat flour substituted bread was found significantly higher in ash, protein, fiber and energy content. Based on these results, it can be concluded that bread prepared with 30% substitution of wheat flour with buckwheat flour is nutritionally superior over locally available breads. Bangladesh J. Sci.

The current study was carried out on biscuits by incorporating barley flour (10%) and buckwheat flour (10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%) into wheat flour. Biscuits were evaluated for physico-chemical, functional and sensory attributes. All the blended samples exhibited high fiber, fat, ash, carbohydrate and mineral contents when compared to those prepared from 100% wheat flour. Considering the taste, flavour, texture and overall acceptability, 10% buckwheat flour incorporated biscuit (70:20:10::WF:BF:BWF) was found to be at the top among the blends. The incorporation of buckwheat flour increased the DPPH scavenging potential hence increased the functional property of blended product.

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) and cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) were processed into flours and used to substitute wheat flour for preparation of cookies. The chemical, including proximate composition and anti-nutritional factors, and functional and pasting properties of the blends were determined. Cookies were produced from the blends with 100% wheat flour as a control. The anti-nutritional factors, physical properties and organoleptic attributes of the cookies were evaluated. An increase in the level of cassava flour substitution resulted in a decrease in the protein content of the composite flour. However, addition of cowpea flour resulted in an increase in the protein content. There were significant (p<0.05) reductions in the studied anti-nutritional factors after baking. Cookies from composite flours were not significantly (p>0.05) different from the control in overall acceptability. This indicates the feasibility of producing nutritious cookies with desirable organoleptic qualities from cassava, wheat and cowpea composite flour.

ABSTRACT Cowpea is a tolerant crop to water deficit, with moderate protein and mineral contents, as well as fast cooking, which are important requirements for semi-arid regions. This study aimed to evaluate the retention of total proteins and minerals after cooking in cowpea genotypes, in order to select those that best preserve these nutrients contents. Twenty-four genotypes were evaluated, being ten lines, five commercial cultivars and nine landraces maintained by farmers. Cooking had a reduced effect on the contents of protein, potassium, calcium, iron and zinc in cowpea grains, with significant effects only in a few genotypes. A significant and positive correlation was observed only for grain yield x zinc content and protein content x cooking time. The line CPCR3F6L17 presented a high grain yield and high levels of protein, potassium, iron and zinc after cooking, showing to be a promising option for the studied region.

Micronutrient deficiency is raising concern worldwide, especially among children and pregnant women in Africa, Southern Asia, and certain developing countries, posing a significant risk to the nutritional status. This study aimed to develop cake fortified with Moringa leaf powder (MOLP), ripe banana flour (RBF) and assessed the effect of MOLP and RBF on the nutritional composition as well as consumer acceptability. The nutritional, mineral, vitamin A and sensory attributes of MOLP and RBF fortified cakes were assessed. Proximate analysis results showed that the addition of MOLP and RBF significantly increased from 5.79% to 8.90% for protein, 1.25% to 1.66% for ash, 2.70% to 6.98% for fiber, and 53.0% to 60.88% for carbohydrate. However, the fat and moisture content decreased from 20.16% to 13.06% and 17.77% to 13.54%, respectively. The mineral contents (phosphorus, potassium, iron, and zinc) increased significantly in the fortified cake compared to the unfortified control. The vitamin A content (3.40–5.62 mg/100 g) of the fortified cakes was significantly (p < 0.05) higher than the vitamin A (1.62 mg/100 g) content of the unfortified cake. Although MOLP and RBF substitution raised most of the nutritional contents, the maximum consumer acceptability was recorded in the unfortified control, which was statistically similar to C2 (1.5% MOLP and 2% RBF) substitution in terms of shape, sweetness, flavor, mouth feel, and overall acceptability. The results indicated that cake supplemented with 1.5% MOLP and 2% RBF provided the enriched nutritional quality and potentially contributed to the improvement of food and nutritional security of the vulnerable populations. Furthermore, utilizing ripe bananas with peels in cake recipes will help to encourage the recovery of food waste for functional food preparation.

This study investigated the functional and pasting properties of wheat and tigernut pomace flour blends, as well as the sensory attributes of the meat pie obtained from the composite flour. Tigernut pomace flour was substituted for wheat flour in the amount of 2 –10%. Unsubstituted wheat flour served as the control. The composite blends were analysed for functional and pasting properties. The sensory attributes of the meat pie obtained from the composite flour were also determined. Bulk density, water absorption capacity, swelling power, and the solubility index of the blends ranged from 0.70 -0.75 g/mL, 0.62 -0.96%, 4.06 -4.47 g/g, and 2.45 -13.7% respectively. Peak, trough, breakdown, final, and setback viscosities, peak time, and pasting temperature ranged from 113.6 -135.9 RVU, 76.7 -90.2 RVU, 36.0 -45.8 RVU, 170 -183.7 RVU, 91.0 -93.6 RVU, 5.07 -6.03 min, and 88.4 -90.0 RVU respectively. In terms of appearance, the meat pie samples prepared from tigernut-substituted flour blends did not show significant difference (p &lt; 0.05) from the control sample. The control sample had the highest overall acceptability, although samples from the composite blends were also found to be acceptable. Hence, tigernut pomace flour could be substituted for wheat at the amount of 10% to produce an acceptable meat pie.
