Abstract
Quality evaluation of breads produced from wheat flour supplemented with Dioclea reflexaflour was investigated composite flours were prepared by blending wheat with Dioclea reflexaflour is ratios of 100.0, 97.5:2.5, 95:5, 92.5:7.5, 90:10, 87.5:12.5 and 85:15%respectively. Flour blends were evaluated for functional properties of composite while bread samples were analyzed for proximate and sensory qualities. Data obtained were subjected to inferential and descriptive statistics. Means were separated with Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT). The functional properties of composite flour such as swelling capacity water absorption capacity, emulsion activity, emulsion stability foam capacity,gelatinization temperature andbulkdensity increased as the incorporation of Dioclea reflexaflour increased. Proximate analysis result revealed significant (p≤0.05) increase in protein (13.71 – 19.11%), ash (1.32 – 2.04%) fibre (0.43 – 1.04%) content, while carbohydrate (61.42 – 54.12%) content decreased with addition of Dioclea reflexa. The functional properties reflected that foam activity, foam stability, emulsion capacity, emulsion stability, swelling capacity, dispersibility and gelation temperature increased with increase in Dioclea reflexaflour no significant (P≥0.05) differences occurred in the sensory attributes of products from 100% wheat and 90:10 flour blend. Hence acceptable bread from 90:10 (wheat: Dioclea reflexablend have been formulated, this compared favorably with whole wheat product.
