Nutrient quality evaluation of cookies produced from blends of wheat, soybean and unripe plantain flours

The potential use of composite flours for the production of bakery products to increase and improve the protein content is one of the areas of research interest nowadays. In this study, suitability of wheat, soybean and unripe plantain composite flour blends was investigated for the development of cookies. Six blends more...


Assessment of the nutritional composition, microbiological and sensory attributes of maize-based fortified food with peanut and carrot blends

This research assessed the nutritional composition, microbiological and sensory attributes of maize-based fortified food with peanut and carrot blends. A total of six composite flour samples were formulated using varying ratios of maize, peanut, and carrot: (MPC1) 100% maize flour (control), (MPC2) 90% maize, 5% peanut, and 5% carrot, ( more...


Curbing food insecurity through composite blend in the production of bread from wheat, acha, uzaaku and unere flours

This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of thermal processing techniques on the nutrient and antinutrient contents of pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan) flours. The pigeon pea seeds were sorted, cleaned and divided into five equal lots of 0.5kg each. Four lots of pigeon pea seeds were processed more...


Evaluation of quality attributes of noodles produced from blends of acha, adu, mungbean and moringa oleifera composite flours

This study aimed at the evaluation of the quality attributes and sensory properties of noodles produced from composite blends of acha, adu, mungbean and moringa oleifera seed. Composite flours of acha, adu, mungbean and moringa oleifera seed were formulated by total replacement of wheat with acha, adu, mungbean and moringa more...


Evaluation of the effects of thermal processing treatments on the nutrient and anti-nutrient composition of pigeon pea (cajanus cajan) seed flours

This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of thermal processing techniques on the nutrient and antinutrient contents of pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan) flours. The pigeon pea seeds were sorted, cleaned and divided into five equal lots of 0.5kg each. Four lots of pigeon pea seeds were processed more...
