ABSTRACT
In this study the functional
properties of wheat, cocoyam and plantain flours; proximate composition and
sensory characteristics of cookies produced from flour blends of composite flours
of wheat, cocoyam and plantain were investigated. The wheat, cocoyam and
plantain flours were blended in different proportions of wheat 24Og: cocoyam
3Og: plantain 30g, wheat 210g: cocoyam 60g: plantain 30g, wheat 180g: cocoyam
90g: plantain 30g, wheat lSOg: cocoyam 120g: plantain 30g. The results of the
functional properties revealed that the bulk density (0.585-0.645g1ni1) and
emulsion capacity (I 9.60- 27.72%) did not show significant differences (p<0.05).
However significant differences (p<O.OS) were observed in the oil absorption
capacity (l.930-2,190g/ml), water absorption capacity (3.250-4.800glml),
swelling index (2.900-3.320) and gelation capacity (75.00-80.00%). The
proximate composition results revealed significant differences (p
