USE OF COMPOSITE FLOUR BLENDS FOR BISCUIT MAKING (PEANUT/CASSAVA FLOUR)

ABSTRACT

Digestive and gingerroot biscuits were produced from composite flour blends cassava flour, peanut butter, wheat flour and ginger flavour in different ratio mix digestive biscuit (50 : 50; 10 : 30 : 60 and 10 : 90 ), Ginger biscuit (10 : 25 : 60 : 5, 10 : 85 and 50 : 45 : 5) respectively. Creaming method was used in the production of biscuits with the specified ingredients. Proximate analysis of the products were also determined; moisture content (1.5 :“ 4.5%), protein content (0.5 -1.8%), fat content (14 : 1%), protein content (17.50 : 23.9%) and carbohydrate content (51. 51 : 60. 20%). Cyanide content of the cassava flour was also determined using the method of FAO (1984) and was shown to have no toxicity effect: 14. 85mg/g against 150mg/g, lethal dose.

The protein content of the peanut enriched biscuits were observed to be high while product C ranked best in terms of mean score using seven points hedonic scale; eight being the highest and two the lowest.
