Abstract

The mixture of Cowpea and Bambara groundnut flour for Ekuru production was evaluated. The analysis carried out include functional properties and sensory evaluation. Different ratio of Cowpea and Bambara groundnut flour were measured. The composition include 100% Cowpea, 100% Bambara groundnut, 80:20, 20:80, 50:50 and 60:40 Cowpea:Bambara groundnut flour. Mixtures of Cowpea and Bambara groundnut flour were significantly different in their water absorption capacity, oil absorption capacity, bulk density, dispersibility, swelling power and solubility (p>0.05). Ekuru made from 20% Bambara groundnut and 80% Cowpea was the most acceptable.
