Abstract

Pan bread was fortified with roasted (Microwave at 5 and 7 min­utes or oven at 7 minutes) defatted peanut flour at 5,10, and 15% lev­els. Gassing power, falling number and dough mixing properties of blends were determined. The organoleptic properties of the produced bread was also evaluated. The results indicated that the addition of defatted peanut flour at 5% (roasted by microwave for 5 minutes), is recommened for rheologi­cal and sensory evaluation.
